Intelligibility in Context Scale - Multilingual Children's Speech The Intelligibility in Context Scale is a quick parent report measure of children's intelligibility. The 7-item questionnaire rates the degree to which children's speech is understood by different communication partners (parents, immediate family, extended family, friends, acquaintances, teachers, and strangers) on a 5-point scale. It has been developed to provide speech-language pathologists with information about children's intelligibility (e.g., children with speech sound disorders, childhood apraxia of speech).

Kristina thoroughly enjoyed teaching her as they worked on Samira's English skills. When it came to assigning final grades, though, Kristina had a dilemma – Samira wasn't able to successfully complete assignments. She came to the classroom often, asked for additional help, and did her best to understand the directions and complete the work.

Preschool Speech & Language Development & Down Syndrome Speech and language therapy goals are to develop speech skills, expressive language skills and understanding skills. By five years of age most children with DS are putting words together or putting signs together or doing both to get their message across. Most 5 year olds will have 50 spoken words or more. Use of grammatical markers (for example, ‘ed’) becomes a focus when your child has a vocabulary size of over 200 words and is combining words. Developing vocabulary is a target in the preschool years.
