Why isn’t my Autistic child answering questions? ✅ Does your autistic child have a hard time answering questions? WHY is this the case? Check out this post for the answer. 💫 What I'm recommending in this post is not appropriate for every child. Please consult a speech pathologist in your area for specific advice about your child. 💫 As a speech pathologist who has been serving autistic children for many years, it is not a one size fits all approach. EVERY child is different. These are just some things that are helping me better help my GLPs in Stages 4/5/6. 💫 If you want to try Hearbuilder.com with your GLP, use code Empower10 for a 10% discount! #speechtherapy #parentingautism #schoolslp #neurodivergent #neurodiversity #echolalia #autisticparenting #gestaltlanguageprocessing #gestaltlanguageprocessors #neurodiversityaffirming #neurodiversityacceptance #neurodivergent #gestaltprocessors #parentingautistickids #parentingautism #gestaltlanguagedevelopment #speechlanguagepathologist #speechtherapyideas #echolaliaandautism #neurodivergenttiktok

Does your child use AAC? One of the best ways to help their language development is to model language about one of their favorite activities! This child in the video loves math and numbers. I brought @lakeshorelearning number locks to our session and talked about it on the AAC! ♾️ I love math ♾️ This is fun ♾️ What’s next? ♾️ How about this one? ♾️ It is blue! ♾️ We can open it! ♾️ Let’s do another one! ♾️ Red lock ♾️ Where’s the key? Modeling is not as hard as it seems! The important thing is to validate your child’s interests and model language around those interests based on their NLA stage!

Replying to @Beatriz This is an explanation of “what is a gestalt”? ✅ I give you examples of gestalts children have used. ✅ Go to the top of my page for a pinned post with potential gestalts to model for your GLP. This will help them acquire more flexible language. #gestaltlanguageprocessing #gestaltlanguageprocessors #echolalia #parentingautism #parentingtips #aac #aacdevice #presumeintelligence #neurodiversityacceptance #neurodiversityaffirming #autisticparenting #neurodivergent #gestaltprocessors #parentingautistickids #gestaltlanguagedevelopment #speechlanguagepathologist

If your child is minimally-speaking or non-speaking, I hope you’re using AAC (augmentative communication). ✅ Here is a quick tip to help you model language naturally for them: find one of their interests and make a statement about it on their device! ✅ For this child, he loves Cars, especially Lightning McQueen! So I programmed “I like watching this” onto his device (on one button) and “Lightning McQueen” on another button. I modeled it while he was watching a Cars video clip today. ✅ AAC can be overwhelming at first, but the best way to learn it is to model it throughout the day! ✅ Start small and choose something they like! ✅ What does your child like? Comment below and I’ll help you choose a statement to type on their device! #gestaltlanguageprocessing #gestaltprocessors #aac #novachat #aacdevice #parentingautism #echolalia #echolaliaandautism #parentingautistickids #gestaltlanguagedevelopment #speechlanguagepathologist #occupationaltherapy #playbasedtherapy #neurodiversityacceptance #neurodivergenttiktok #speechtherapyideas

If your child or speech client is Autistic and you’re wanting to help them with their expressive language in Stages 4/5/6, here’s a tip! ✅ Please note your child is likely not ready for questions until in NLA Stage 4. ✅ This is how I work on executive functioning with my clients to help them organize their thoughts and make plans or summarize what we did in speech: we make lists during the session talking about what my client chooses. ✅ If he chooses the iPad, we might say “Number 1…play with iPad”. ✅ This also helps with literacy, problem solving, grammar, vocabulary, and answering questions. ✅ What worked for the client I am describing in this video may not work for your client or child, but making schedules as your child chooses activities helps them with executive functioning (flexible thinking, self control) which helps set them up for success in the future. ✅ Keep in mind I ALWAYS prioritize sensory regulation and the child’s interests. This is never forced! Often times I am the one making the list like it’s no big deal…talking about what the child chooses to play with. I just love that the child today chose to make this list because he’s so interested in my dogs! 🐶 #parentingautism #gestaltlanguageprocessing #autismacceptance #echolalia #neurodiversityaffirming #gestaltlanguageprocessor #presumeintelligence #parentingautistickids #schoolslps
