Family Practices

There are many specific communication disorders explained in Chapter 8,

all of which fall under either Speech Disorder or Language Disorder.

Choose one of the many communication disorders from the chapter and

explain the main components of this disorder under the correct broad

heading: Speech Disorder or Language Disorder. Prepare a fact sheet

that includes the following:

• Disorder name and summary of the main characteristics
• Explanation of what children go through
• Strategies to help support children in the classroom
• Idea or best practice for supporting families,
• Include a resource that you could share with families that explains more about the disorder.

Your original response should be a minimum of 300 words and include

support from the textbook and one outside source that you could share

with families. Be sure to include a reference at the end of your fact

sheet in APA format.
