Description of Discovery: Pathways to Better Speech for Children with Down Syndrome

It is essential to lay the foundation for speech development as early as possible for children with Down syndrome. The latest research shows that an integrated approach to speech development is most effective, including the combined use of spoken words with sign language and text, paying attention to hearing loss, and addressing intelligibility issues. Now, parents who are looking for information and guidance on their child's speech development have a new resource to rely on.

DISCOVERY: Pathways to Better Speech for Children with Down Syndrome, is an 81-minute DVD from Blueberry Shoes Productions, the producer of DOWN SYNDROME: The First 18 Months. This invaluable resource offers practical advice, examples, and expertise for parents and professionals to follow as they help children with Down syndrome from infancy to age seven become the best talkers they can be.

DISCOVERY covers:
Communication Milestones
Hearing Issues
Encouraging Speech
Making Speech Understandable

Building Vocabulary & Grammar
Connection Between Reading & Speech

An international group of experts on speech development and Down syndrome discuss their methods and explain how to put them into practice. Additionally, the DVD features knowledgeable parents who comment on what techniques and approaches have worked best for their children. And children with Down syndrome also appear throughout the DVD, demonstrating the range of achievement that parents can expect.

DISCOVERY makes an excellent companion resource to EARLY COMMUNICATION SKILLS FOR CHILDREN WITH DOWN SYNDROME and CLASSROOM LANGUAGE SKILLS FOR CHILDREN WITH DOWN SYNDROME.
