    Playtime with Tor: A Youtube Channel for GLPs by Victoria Matkowski, SLP

    In this episode of the Great Language Partner podcast, Tor, a pediatric SLP, shares her journey in creating the YouTube channel 'Playtime with Tor,' which focuses on supporting Gestalt Language Processors (GLPs). The conversation delves into the differences between analytic and gestalt language processing, the importance of modeling language, and the strategies used in her videos to effectively engage GLPs. The hosts discuss the significance of songs in language development, the nuances of language modeling, and the need for repetition and emotional language. Tor encourages parents to embrace singing as a tool for communication and shares resources available for further support. Takeaways: Tor has been a pediatric SLP for 13 years and created 'Playtime with Tor' to support GLPs. The channel was inspired by the need for content tailored to Gestalt Language Processors. Modeling phrases rather than single words is crucial for GLPs. Songs are an effective way to engage GLPs and support language development. Repetition and redundancy in language modeling help children retain language. Emotional language and intonation are important for GLPs. Fill-in-the-blank strategies can create prompt dependency if overused. Every child is unique, and strategies should be tailored to individual needs. Parents are encouraged to sing and incorporate songs into routines.   To Connect with Tor:  Tor's Website: playtimewithtor.co Newsletter sign up to gain access to free resource library: https://playtimewithtor.co/newsletter-sign-up Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/playtimewithtor?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Youtube: https://youtube.com/@playtimewithtor?si=W7LGLJX2r-cROlto   To learn more about gestalt language processing, as well as access Nicole and Katja's resources, courses, and more, visit our websites: www.greatlanguagepartner.com https://www.bohospeechie.net/ The Great Language Partner Workbook is here! Learn more here!  Use code PODCAST at checkout for a discount!

    Supporting Motor Planning in Autistic Kids with Erin Clarelli, OT

    In this conversation, Erin Clarelli, an occupational therapist, discusses the importance of understanding motor planning, apraxia, and dyspraxia in supporting autistic individuals, particularly those who are non-speaking or minimally speaking. She emphasizes the need to presume competence in these individuals and the role of motor coaching in helping them navigate their challenges. The discussion also covers the interconnectedness of motor skills and communication, the impact of dyspraxia on behavior, and the importance of collaboration between occupational therapists and speech therapists. Erin shares practical strategies for supporting children with dyspraxia and highlights the significance of understanding the whole body in the context of communication and motor planning. Key Takeaways: Presuming competence is crucial when working with non-speaking autistic individuals. Motor coaching can help individuals execute motor plans more effectively. Dyspraxia often leads to a disconnect between intention and action. Understanding apraxia and dyspraxia is essential for effective support. Motor loops can be both soothing and dysregulating for autistic individuals. Collaboration between OTs and speech therapists enhances support for autistic children. Standardized testing may not accurately reflect the abilities of non-speaking children. The whole body must be considered in communication and motor planning. Feedback from individuals is vital for tailoring support strategies. Resiliency and growth mindset are important in therapy.
