ABOUT THE SET
Detailed treatment protocols are common in medicine, but unusual in speech-language pathology. Protocols of treatment are more than a description of treatment procedures. They are comprehensive and detailed enough that a clinician can simply follow the protocols to complete baserates, treatment, and probe.
These two protocols are unique in that they are written, not as treatment descriptions, but as scripts the clinician and the child follow. In fact, the scripted treatment protocols describe the roles the clinician and the client play in treatment sessions. Protocols specify all target language skills, up to 20 exemplars for each target skill, and scripted treatment, baserate, and probe protocols. In addition, the clinician also will find all that is necessary to document the child's entry level skills, progress during treatment, and generalized productions of target skills in untrained linguistic contexts. To accomplish this important task, the protocols include baserate, treatment, and probe recording sheets.
The protocols are a resource that is unmatched by any on the market. By using the protocols, the clinician can save much treatment planning time and effort. Unlike any resource manual that exists, the protocols have all the language treatment targets and their exemplars already printed on forms the clinician can use in treatment sessions. All recording sheets may be either photocopied or printed from the included compact disc (CD). The clinician can personalize the recording forms by simply typing-in the names of the clinic, the child, and the clinician, along with other personal information that is typically included in a recording sheet.
The targets are roughly sequenced to facilitate teaching more basic to more advanced language skills to children with language disorders. Clinicians, however, are free to sequence teaching as they see fit; they can enter a child into treatment at any point in the protocols and have the child exit at any later point.
Treatment Protocols For Language Disorders in Children
Volume I: Essential Morphologic Skills
The first book contains protocols for basic language skills most children with language disorder need to be taught in the initial stages of treatment. The protocols give scripted scenarios for teaching most of the bound morphemes of English that children with language disorder typically lack. These include: basic words; regular and irregular plurals; possessive; present progressive; prepositions; pronouns; auxiliaries and copula; regular and irregular past tense; articles; conjunctions; adverbs; regular third person singular.
For each target skill, 20 exemplars are available for the clinician to baserate, treat, and probe for generalized production. Most children can be advanced to relatively complex social communication skill level training only when they have mastered the basic morphologic features. Because the clinicians roughly sequence in this manner, the basic morphologic skills and more advanced social communication skills are described in two separate volumes.

Treatment Protocols For Language Disorders in Children
Volume II: Social Communication
The second book contains protocols for teaching social communication skills to children who have mastered the basic morphologic skills. These relatively advanced social communication skills include the following: adjectives; comparatives and superlatives; adverbs; production of various kinds of requests; production of commands; comprehension of commands; production and comprehension of a variety of
questions including what, why, when, where, who, how, which, yes, and no; production of negative sentences (negation) including is not/are not, I am not/I do not, I was not/I did not, constructions; passive sentences without and with the agent; topic - initiation; topic - maintenance; turn taking; eye contact; conversational repair: requests for clarification; conversational repair: responding to requests for clarification
As in the first volume, the protocols to teach social communication includes scripted scenarios that the clinician and the child can follow. Just by enacting the roles assigned to the clinician and the child, effective treatment may be accomplished. All target skill exemplars, detailed scripts, and recording sheets are provided on both the printed text and the CD.
