Speech Sound Elicitation & Target Word Selection That Works in Real Life

Many courses stop at ?how to get the sound,? but what happens next is just as important. This session will help speech-language pathologists bridge the gap between sound elicitation and selecting functional, motivating targets that accelerate progress. We'll explore: Quick, evidence-based elicitation strategies to get a sound started. How to choose functional, high-impact target words that fit the child's needs, environment, and therapy goals. Balancing complexity, frequency, and motivation to drive faster generalization. Real-world therapy examples that combine elicitation and target selection for maximum engagement.
