SSISS

Soundswell Screening & Intervention for Speech Sounds is a training package for school staff. This practical resource includes a screening tool and a wealth of intervention activities to support children whose speech sounds are slow to develop.

The course includes a handbook which contains the screening tool and the intervention activities.

The pictures and recording forms for the speech sound screen, plus various resources required for delivering the intervention activities can be accessed below. 

Participants will be able to familiarise themselves with how to screen the speech sounds a child is using.  They will understand the ages at which most children will be using certain sounds (so as to be confident in knowing when there is a cause for concern).  Being able to identify which speech sound processes are slow to become established, means that participants can select both universal and targeted activities to both support and enhance speech sound development.
