Product description...

Developing Expressive Language In Verbal Students With Autism

This book was written for a group of students with autism who have enough speech to state requests or recite dialogs but not enough to discuss a specific topic. This book will describe ways I have found to successfully work with verbal and semi-verbal students with Autism who may have functional speech but are struggling with academic progress. This book includes chapters to map a communication formula. “Soma Mukhopadhyay takes us to the next level in thinking about how access to RPM can promote the development of speech. This book would be helpful for professionals and families wondering how augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and speech work together.” Katie Anawalt, M.S., CCC-SLP “As a Speech-Language Pathologist for 27 years and a practicing Certified RPM Provider of over 3 years, I find RPM helps students access language through RPM that they are not able to access through speech. Developing Expressive Language in Verbal Students With Autism Using Rapid Prompting Method is a valuable tool for challenges such as word retrieval that many students on the Autism Spectrum may experience.” Jackie Dorshorst M.S.,SLP
