Speech-language pathologists lead this fun group that emphasizes speech sound development for pre-school and early school age children.

Articulation is the ability to produce the individual sounds of speech clearly, while phonology is the patterning of sounds together. The group will include imitation of sounds, exploring two- to three-syllable words, and producing initial and final consonant sounds. Stories, games, crafts and other activities will be explored, while working on development of each child's clarity of speech. Home recommendations will be provided.
