List the five domains of development 

language

gross motor

fine motor

cognitive 

adaptive

socioemotional 

100

A child is playing alone in their playroom with pushing a bus back and forth- identify social and cognitive play

solitary and functional

100

Identify the five domains of language

morph

phono

syntax

pragmatics

semantics

100

Depict a child with deficits in 

form

content

use 

form- phonological awareness, moprhological awareness, vocabulary, grammar- sentence structure, verb endings, plurals

content- vocabulary

use- comprehension of social cues 

200

Describe what the MAIN occurrences during the sensorimotor stage

object permanence

causality

means to an end

imitation 

play


200

compare and contrast associative play and cooperative play

group based

common goal 

200

Identify which domains fit under form, content, and use and explain why

form- morph, phono, syntax

content- semantics

use-pragmatics 

200

compare and contrast biological, environmental, and cognitive factors 

enviro- external experiences

cog- perception and information processing 

bio-genetics risks and neurological 

300

Describe the precursors to language

joint attention

motor speech

comprehension

intentionality

gestures 

conversations 

300

Provide an example of a child who engages in cooperative play and dramatic play

a pizza shop to deliver a pizza to their neighbor 

300

Describe the difference between difference delay and disorder 

difference- Communication behaviors meet the norms of the primary speech community but do not meet the norms of Standard English

delay- A delay in acquisition of language skills compared to one’s chronological and cognitive/intellectual age-peers. 

disorder- žSubset of children who continue to demonstrate persistent difficulties acquiring and using language skills below chronological age expectations (by preschool or school age) that cannot be explained by other factors (for example, low nonverbal intelligence, sensory impairments or autism spectrum disorder) and may be identified as having a specific language impairment (language disorder).

300

Describe the language characteristics of an autistic child 

potential echolalia

phonologic- disordered prosody, inappropriate intensity, abnormal inflection

semantic- decreased receptive, diff. with abstract and generalization

syntactic- omission of grammar markers, incorrect word order, simple sentences

morph- fewer inflectional

pragmatic- discourse management, joint attention, perspective taking, non verbal communication cues

400

Identify and describe a child's vocalization progress

reflexive sounds - in voluntary - grunts, burps

sounds for play - pitch changes

cooing- vowels

babbling- reduplicated and variegated

jargon- conversation like 

prototypes- words 

400

Describe a typically developing 5 month old child.

reocgnizes voices and sounds

responds to stimuli

localizes

cries 

smiles 

coos

babbles - b/ m/ d 

400

Describe the difference between primary and secondary - why does this make a difference?

primary - no other disorder

secondary- asd, id, dd, adhd, tbi, hearing loss 

400

describe the three different types of hearing loss and explain how they influence speech and language 

conductive- sounds cannot get through outer and middle ear

sensorineural- inner ear damage

mixed- both 

develops more slowely

difficulty with function words

monotone 

vocabulary gap

simpler sentences

word endings

vocal volume

inappropriate pitch

500

Compare perloctionary, illocutionary, loctionary 

per- design, plan and adjust - raising arms

ill- conventional gestures, vocalizations- dragging a caregiver

lo- words replace gestures 

500

Describe why is important for an SLP to understand and know the social and cognitive stages of play. How does this correlate to a child's language development?

planning a session

meeting the child where they are

engaging the child

preferences

including a child 

children learn through play

language influences their stage of social play

500

Depict a child with a receptive disorder

expressive disorder 

mixed 

receptive- understanding gestures, following directions, pointing 

expressive- asking or answering, naming

mixed

500

describe the difference between established and at risk and provide examples 

established- known or expected patterns of developmental delay

chromosomal

neurological 

congenital 

at risk- exposed to factors 

caregiver alcohol use

family history 

parent child interaction
