Phonology Resource Pack for Adult Aphasia

Provides speech & language therapists, support workers, volunteers and other professionals with a ready-to-use photocopiable and flexible resource to use with people with asphasia, specifically those with phonological deficits. With its focus on the psycholinguistic approach to asphasia therapy, the pack presents a series of carefully graded exercises, many in worksheet format, that work on rhyme, recognition, judgement and generation, and homophone judgement.

• Certain tasks correlate directly with sub-sections in the PALPA (Psychological Assessment of Language Processing in Aphasia) and can be used to teach tasks, as well as remediate identified defecits.
• Word and picture rhyme activities are graded into easy, moderate and difficult tasks to use in therapy or to photocopy to create worksheets for home practice.

With more than 300 photocopiable illustrations, this is a valuable and easy-to-use addition to the therapy materials already used in the impairment-based approach to aphasia therapy.
