Treating Children?s Speech Disorders by Combining Articulation Therapy with Language Intervention Activities

Mirta Allende

This study explores an innovative approach to addressing children’s speech disorders by combining traditional
articulation therapy with language intervention activities. The aim is to enhance the effectiveness of treatment by
integrating two key aspects of communication development. The research emphasizes the importance of a holistic
approach that considers both speech sound production and broader language skills. By incorporating art and languagebased
activities into therapy sessions, the study seeks to create a more engaging and dynamic learning environment
for children. These activities are designed to not only target specific speech sound errors but also promote overall
language development. The hypothesis is that this integrated approach will lead to more comprehensive and lasting
improvements in children’s communication abilities. The abstract highlights the potential benefits of this novel treatment
method and underscores the need for further research to validate its efficacy. Ultimately, the study aims to contribute
valuable insights to the field of speech-language pathology and provide a foundation for more effective interventions in
addressing children’s speech disorders.
