Language is made up of socially shared rules
3 Subtypes of Language:
Receptive Language- How the child understands and processes what is being said to them.
Expressive Language- How the child shares thoughts, ideas, and feelings using speech.
Pragmatics- The social and emotional use of language

Speech: The actual act of producing the sounds Components of Speech include:
Articulation: the movement of the lip, tongue, and jaw to produce the sounds of speech
Intelligibility: The percentage that you are able to understand what the child is saying
Dysfluency (Stuttering): The many forms of interruptions in the production of speech that prevent easy, effortless, and smooth flow of speech.
Voice: The use of vocal folds and breathing to create sounds
Oral Motor: How the child uses oral strength and coordination to produce adequate articulatory precision, and swallow safely and efficiently.

Normal Disfluencies
Types of Stuttering Phrase Repetitions (I love..I love school) Interjections (I , um, love school) Word Repetitions (I..I love school)
During their preschool years children are rapidly acquiring language and speech sounds.
A child acquires receptive concepts before expressive concepts often leading to the child knowing what they want, but not how to express it.
Many children will begin to display characteristics of disfluencies, as the child's speech and language improve, the child's disfluencies improve.
Zebrowski & Kelly, 2002

Disordered Dysfluencies
Types of stuttering Part Word Repetitions (W.W.Wow, I love school) Prolongations (WWWWow, I love school) Blocks ({ silent pause}...I love school)
Frequency: More than 10% of the conversation consists of dysfluencies
Duration: Stuttering events last longer that 1 second
There are secondary characteristics with stuttering instances: Eye blinks Facial tension Labored or heavy breathing
You must look to see if it's frequent or inconsistent and if there is noticeable struggle when speaking
