The article deals with the issues of improving methods of speech therapy assistance to primary school age children with severe speech impairments. It is known that they are the ones who experience persistent difficulties in mastering reading skills at the level of technical and semantic components. A comprehensive impact on the formation of reading skills and language generalizations in children is proposed, using materials from the reverse dictionary of modern Russian. The questions of correlation of these types of exercises with the thematic features of the school curriculum in the Russian language and literary reading are considered. Variants of creative tasks are offered to develop students’ skills in language analysis, synthesis and morphemic division of a word. Recommendations are given on the use of certain types of exercises in work with children who have general underdevelopment of speech, as well as underdevelopment of memory and attention processes.

The ability to understand the meaning of words and sentences is an important determinant of the language development, which also indicates the development of the ability to learn. Bearing this in mind, the research was aimed at studying the level of semantic development of younger primary school-age children. Semantic development was studied from the aspect of understanding the meaning of words and their use in the following lexical relations: homonyms, antonyms, synonyms and metonyms. The research was conducted in three Belgrade primary schools during the school year 2013/2014. The sample was convenient and included 431 second- and third-grade pupils. The Semantic test (by S. Vladisavljevic) was used in the study. Research results showed that none of the pupils had provided the correct answer to all administered tasks. The best scores were achieved on the part of the test referring to antonyms, while the pupils were least successful on the tasks referring to metonyms. Additionally, third-grade pupils were more successful than younger participants, while there were no differences according to gender. The results indicated that it was necessary to devote more attention to different lexical and semantic exercises at preschool and early school age, considering the link between semantic development, the acquisition of reading and writing skills and the (un)successful mastering of the school curriculum in the majority of subjects.

The article discloses the problem of dyslalia treatment in primary school-age children. It highlights the scientific views of Ukrainian and foreign scientists concerning the diagnosis of dyslalia as a speech disorder. In particular, the author investigates various approaches to the classification of dyslalia in domestic and foreign literature and reveals the methodological foundations of dyslalia correction in the context of the formation of speech competence of primary school-age children of the New Ukrainian School.The study characterizes primary forms and types of dyslalia depending on the causes of its occurrence and the number of groups of disturbing sounds. Following the stages of speech therapy, the author describes a method for correcting violations of sound pronunciation and the formation of skills for accurate reproduction of sounds within children of primary school age.Particular attention is focused on the timely detection and correction of dyslalia in elementary school students to prevent the manifestation of violation processes in reading and writing, problems with communication in society, and the formation of the personality as a whole. The need to improve the competence of teachers, including primary school teachers working with children of this category, is noted in connection with the transition of primary schools to the new State Standard and the active introduction of inclusive education.The author substantiates the expediency of close cooperation of all participants in the educational process regarding the awareness of the shared responsibility for the child’s speech development

Currently, the world is experiencing changes in the education of pupils with mild mental disorders. There is a tendency to include and educate pupils in general education institutions, while correcting the diagnosed and existing developmental disorders. Most pupils with mild mental disorders have language and speech impairments, including reading disorders, which make the learning process difficult. The work of teachers and speech therapists is hampered by the specifics of pupils' mental disorders in the pupils' mental processes and activities, as well as insufficient work material. Teachers and speech therapists do research, compile existing and develop new didactic materials for their work, including the development of reading skills. The paper analyzes theoretically the peculiarities of reading skills of pupils with mild mental disorders and the possibilities of their correction in the work of a speech therapist in a general education institution.

This work explored the connection between the characteristics of perception of non-verbal emotional information in two modalities of presentation — visual and auditory — with indicators of school achievements in 32 schoolchildren aged 8—9 years.We studied how the children recognised four basic emotions — "joy", "sadness", "anger", "fear" — in facial expressions and intonation of speech.The characteristics of their perceptions were compared with their academic achievements in three school disciplines: Russian language, reading and mathematics.It is shown that there is a clear correlation between the child’s school progress and acoustic perception of emotions, while no connection with visual perception was found.It was revealed that the features of the relationship between the effectiveness of perception of emotions and school performance differed in boys and girls and also depended on the specific school subject and the type of emotion.Unlike girls, boys showed an improvement in academic performance when the accuracy of their emotion recognition increased.There was no evidence of a link between successful learning and the preferred type of perception of emotional information (acoustic or visual) in primary school children.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which school-age children with speech sound disorder (SSD) exhibit concomitant reading difficulties and examine the extent to which phonological processing and speech production abilities are associated with increased likelihood of reading risks. Method Data were obtained from 120 kindergarten, first-grade, and second-grade children who were in receipt of school-based speech therapy services. Children were categorized as being “at risk” for reading difficulties if standardized scores on a word decoding measure were 1 SD or more from the mean. The selected predictors of reading risk included children's rapid automatized naming ability, phonological awareness (PA), and accuracy of speech sound production. Results Descriptive results indicated that just over 25% of children receiving school-based speech therapy for an SSD exhibited concomitant deficits in word decoding and that those exhibiting risk at the beginning of the school year were likely to continue to be at risk at the end of the school year. Results from a hierarchical logistic regression suggested that, after accounting for children's age, general language abilities, and socioeconomic status, both PA and speech sound production abilities were significantly associated with the likelihood of being classified as at risk. Conclusions School-age children with SSD are at increased risk for reading difficulties that are likely to persist throughout an academic year. The severity of phonological deficits, reflected by PA and speech output, may be important indicators of subsequent reading problems.

The present study examined age differences in time-based prospective memory (TBPM) in primary school age children and tested the role of self-initiated memory retrieval and strategic time monitoring (TM) as possible developmental mechanisms. Fifty-four children were recruited from local primary schools (27 younger children, mean age = 7.2 ± 0.55 years, and 27 older children, mean age = 9.61 ± 0.71 years). The task was a driving game scenario in which children had to drive a vehicle (ongoing task) and to remember to refuel before the vehicle runs out of gas (TBPM task, i.e., the fuel gauge served as child-appropriate time equivalent). Fuel gauge was either displayed permanently (low level of self-initiation) or could only be viewed on demand by hitting a button (high level of self-initiation). The results revealed age-dependent TBPM differences with better performance in older children. In contrast, level of self-initiated memory retrieval did not affect TBPM performance. However, strategies of TM influenced TBPM, as more frequent time checking was related to better performance. Patterns of time checking frequency differed according to children’s age and course of the game, suggesting difficulties in maintaining initial strategic TM in younger children. Taken together, the study revealed ongoing development of TBPM across primary school age. Observed age differences seemed to be associated with the ability to maintain strategic monitoring.

AbstractSpeech therapy can be viewed as a business in logopaedic area that aims to offer services for correcting language. A proper treatment of speech impairments ensures improved efficiency of therapy, so, in order to do that, a therapist must continuously learn how to adjust its therapy methods to patient's characteristics. Using Information and Communication Technology in this area allowed collecting a lot of data regarding various aspects of treatment. These data can be used for a data mining process in order to find useful and usable patterns and models which help therapists to improve its specific education. Clustering, classification or association rules can provide unexpected information which help to complete therapist's knowledge and to adapt the therapy to patient's needs.

Analysis And Synthesis

The article discusses mechanisms of various kinds of disorthography (conditioned by the underdevelopment of morphological, phonemic and graphical bases of orthographic activity) in schoolchildren with general speech underdevelopment. It offers basic methodology and techniques to correct disorthography conditioned by inadequate child acquisition of phonemic, traditional principles of orthography and principles of graphics. A systematic work on the development of psychological and language components of this type of learning activity coupled with oral speech disorder overcoming facilitates successful acquisition of program requirements by such children. The following methods were used: practical (exercises, modelling, construction, schematization, games), visual (observation, image study, image and practical activity results demonstration, stimulus material demonstration), verbal methods (conversation, narration, method of language analysis and synthesis, grammar and orthographic tasks solution). The article covers the results of many years of positive experience in the correction of various types of disorthography of primary schoolchildren with general speech underdevelopment. Formation of grammatical and orthographic activity, the basics of speech and language competences, Russian language academic performance increase are prerequisites of linguistic personality development and child self-development. The practical importance of the research lies in the development and testing of methods of disorthography correction of children with general speech underdevelopment. The given methodology helps to improve their spelling skills and allows to carry out a purposeful and controlled formation of spelling activity. The results can be used in the work of speech therapy centers and educational establishments which carry out inclusive students’ education.
