Tries to identify specific causes of language roblems
|
|
Descriptive - Developmental Model
|
Describes a child's behavioral strengths and weaknesses in detail
|
|
General Characteristics of Children with SLI
|
- Impairment that is specific to language
- Slow to develop language - Do not outgrow the SLI - Genetic component to SLI, and this is related to abnormalities in brain structure and function |
|
What are the processing difficulties of children with SLI?
|
- Speed, SLI children process information more slowly
- Limited, reduced processing capacity |
|
Types of Sentences

Declarative - Statement
Imperative - Command Exclamatory - Exclaim Interrogative - Question Active Passive |
