Weekly Therapy Update

This will be Raymond's last therapy update for a little while.  The I.U. is on break now until the almost the end of the month.
 
Raymond's Therapy Update for the Week 
 
"Occupational Therapy Record
 
Student: Raymond B.
Date: 02/06/2013
Location: Home
  • Hand Skill Development
  • Prewriting/Coloring
Consult With: N/A
 
Comments:
Raymond attended to given activities and completed them, however, required redirection between tasks.  He used his left hand more then right, however does switch.  He used an appropriate 4-finger grasp for prewriting to imitate vertical lines and circles.  Completed puzzles, worked on choosing and identifying animals.  Raymond was verbalizing a lot today "ready, go" and "more"."

Lily's Therapy Update for the Week

"Progress since last session - Including Parent Report:
 
- Lily puts words together and said "Bella make" while showing an art project her sister made.


Outcome(s)/Goal(s) from IFSP/IEP to be addressed:

- #1. Lily will increase her language to express her wants/needs especially at mealtime.

Daily Routines Used:
  • Play with toys (play foods and puzzles)
  • Book Activities
  • Songs and Rhymes
Strategies Used
  • Offer Choices
  • Turn Taking
  • Describing or Labeling What You Are Doing
  • Adjusting Pace by Wait or Pause for Response
  • Model or Demonstrate for Child
  • Encourage Child to Imitate
What we did today to address outcome:

- Lily imitated vowels, consonants and syllables in "the Kaufman" today.  She is not yet using "oo" vowel in words even with model.  We blew bubbles today and prompted lip protrusion.
 
- Lily spoke in single words and made choices, sometimes saying first item named today.  She is spontaneously imitating many words.
 
- Erica estimates she understands one out of three words Lily says.
 
- Lily said "yellow" with l-sound nicely today.

Plans for next session:
  • Vowels in Single words
  • Isolation
  • Syllables 
Suggestions for families to do within their activities/routines:

- Continue book sharing activities.
- Continue vowel song and CD songs and rhymes
- Intone 2 syllable words - "bubble"

Progress information to be collected between sessions:

- Lily's use of language to express her wants and needs."
