About this title

Synopsis

This book invites the reader to explore Natural Language Acquisition for Gestalt Language Processors. It clearly sets out the stages of Gestalt Language Processing and the steps in therapy to effectively help neurodivergent children and young people to move on with their language development, supporting them to become independent and creative language users.

A wealth of real-life examples and in-depth case studies brings theory to life and allows practitioners to apply the principles to the children they know. Chapters include:

• A detailed description of each stage of Natural Language Acquisition and a summary of the research background.

• Clear and comprehensive guides to scoring language samples and tracking progress.

• AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) options and supports for developing literacy.

• Consideration of regulation and movement supports.

• Handouts for use in practice, with extra content available online.

Gestalt Language Processing is an invaluable resource for any Speech and Language Therapist, parent or teacher who is looking to further their knowledge and transform the language support they offer to autistic and neurodivergent children.
