after school speech part 8

On Thursday, SJ had his weekly after school speech.  She gave me his new treatment plan.  This document contains his goals, impairments and limitations.  His new goals will help him increase his understanding and expression of spoken language, so that he can effectively engage in conversation.  He will also work on communicating his thoughts, feelings and ideas in an organized manner.
1. She will help him develop strategies to help him maintain eye contact.
2.  SJ will answer "Why" questions related to real-world situations.
3. SJ will use an organized sequence of thoughts to retell a story or 3-4 part sequence of events to answer "How" questions.  She will give his cues and prompts during his structured therapy activities.
4. SJ will identify specific names of people, places, time, and objects after given a 2-4 sentence passage.  She will use silent repetition and/or graphic/written cues during structured therapy activities.
5. SJ will gather details, through the use of graphic organizers, to formulate the main idea of a story.  She will use cues and prompts to assist him.
She would also like us to work with him at home.  She would like us to demonstrate knowledge of strategies and skills used during his therapy sessions to promote carryover at home.  We will do this by completing the homework she assigns him.   
His therapist said they again worked on the short news briefs.  He had to answer a Who, What, Where or When question.  She said that he seemed to have an easier time answering the question when she read the article to him.  She said when he read the article he seemed to struggle with answering the question.  Of course, he kept insisting that he read the questions, so he struggled through quite a few of them.  I was really glad she shared this with me.  SJ usually has to bring his reading book home on Thursdays to read his story at home. He normally has his reading comprehension test on Fridays.  SJ was "accidently" forgetting to bring his book home on Thursdays.  I asked SJ's teacher to give me a copy of his book to keep here.  This way there will not be any more cases of his forgetting to bring the book home on Thursdays.  Since we have the book here, I told my husband that one of us could read the story to him on Wednesdays.  Then, he could read it to us on Thursday.  I am hoping that this technique will help SJ comprehend the story more easily.  We will try this for the next few weeks and I am so hoping for positive results
