| contents | An Early Intervention Program for Parents of Language Delayed Preschool Children. Reblin, Patricia A. Books Child Development Childrens Libraries Childrens Literature Developmental Delays Early Intervention Language Acquisition Language Skills Parent Child Relationship Parent Education Parenting Skills Play Preschool Children Skill Development Social Support Groups Speech Communication A program was implemented to involve 10 parents in helping their preschool children with language delays. Monthly parent support groups were held, and 10 professional speakers lectured to parents on child development topics. Parents were trained by a speech language pathologist to be language facilitators for their children. Parents were also encouraged to participate in developmentally appropriate play, use appropriate library books with their children, and listen to and converse with their children. After the program, parents completed a questionnaire addressing topics covered by the speakers and trainers, including the essentials of child development, language acquisition, and literacy skills. All of the parents had learned to listen more attentively to the intent of their child's language, were altering their language, and using shorter sentences. All children were tested before and after the program with the Zimmerman Preschool Language Scale. Over the 8 months of the program, gains for auditory comprehension ranged from 12 to 22 months and gains for verbal ability ranged from 10 to 24 months. The child development questionnaire and program evaluation questionnaire are appended. (Contains 20 references.) (SW) |
