What is the Difference Between a Speech Therapist and a Speech Pathologist?

Early Intervention
In a word: none. The terms "speech therapist" and "speech pathologist" have been used for years as titles for persons who work with persons having communication impairments. In the past, the term "speech pathologist" was used by professionals to describe themselves, but the term most commonly used today is "speech-language pathologist" or "SLP." Lay people have more often referred to us as "speech therapists," "speech correctionists," or even "speech teachers." These are all terms that describe the same profession, but "speech-language pathologist" is the preferred term because it captures the essence of our work (speech and language) and also signifies that we are qualified by our training and clinical experience to identify, assess, and provide remediation for pathological conditions of communication. The term "speech" is used to denote the components of vocal activity such as phonation (the production of a vocal tone via the larynx or "voice box"), articulation (the movement of the structures in the mouth to create speech sounds to produce words), resonance (the overall quality of the voice as well as the process that transforms the vocal tone into what we recognize as a person's "voice") and fluency (the timing and synchronization of these components of the complex speech act). "Language" refers to the comprehension and production of language, including the mode in which it is comprehended or produced (oral, gesturing, writing, or reading). Even the term "speech-language pathologist" doesn't quite capture the totality of our scope of practice. For example, speech-language pathologists also address the needs of persons who exhibit difficulties with cognitive functions (attention, memory, problem-solving), literacy, social interaction, and swallowing. Considering such a wide scope of practice, perhaps in the future a new term will be coined to describe who we are and what we do. Dr. Donald R. Fuller has been a speech-language pathologist for 16 years. He is Chair of the Department of Communication Disorders at Eastern Washington University, Cheney, WA. His doctorate degree was earned from Purdue University in augmentative and alternative communication (AAC).

Each list of articulation sounds contains words with the target sound in the beginning, middle, and end position, including blends when applicable, as well as words that...
are common and functional (words we use all day...everyday)
are mostly 1 syllable (multi-syllabic words are more difficult)
have a phonemic context that don't interfere with production of the target sound (most words)
If "R" is the problem sound using the word "Rope" makes saying the "R" sound harder because the "O" sound is considered a round vowel.
A round vowel is one where you round your lips to say it. Go ahead...try it by saying "O" as in "boat". You rounded your lips didn't you? I thought you might.
Children who have difficulty with the "R" sound tend to say the "W" sound...they say "Wabbit" instead of "Rabbit".
The "W" sound is considered a rounded sound too. Try saying the "W" sound without rounding your lips...you can't because that is how the sound is made.
So by pairing the "R" sound with the "O" sound like in the word "Rope", this makes the word extra difficult for a child who has a problem saying the "R" sound because the "O" that follows the "R" will naturally make them want to round there lips.

13 Terms Your Speech Therapist Uses and What They Mean
Sometimes it might seem like your speech therapist is speaking another language. With as much time as you spend talking with them, you may still hear some terms that feel unfamiliar–especially if you’re just starting speech therapy. Here’s a helpful glossary defining some common terms used in speech therapy sessions. You may also see some of these terms included in your child’s speech therapy goals. Of course, if you ever encounter a word or phrase that you’re unsure about, please ask! We speech therapists never mean to be unclear, but sometimes these terms are so second nature to us that a reminder is helpful.
1. Speech and language
Speech-language pathologists are constantly using the phrase “speech and language.” But don’t those two words mean the same thing? Actually, not quite! This phrase refers to two aspects of a person’s ability to communicate with others:
Speech is the motoric production of speech sounds using your tongue, mouth, and breath.
Language consists of using nonverbal language, verbal language, and correct grammar and sentence structure in order to communicate thoughts and needs.
You may hear this term used during an evaluation for speech therapy. This evaluation is often called a speech and language evaluation, because the speech therapist will assess both areas of development in order to determine the need and goals for therapy.
2. Articulation
What is articulation? Articulation refers to a person’s ability to make speech sounds. If your child is in speech therapy because they have a hard time saying their /r/ or /s/ sounds, for instance, then they are receiving what’s called articulation treatment. You may hear your speech therapist say something like, “Your child’s articulation skills are improving.” For kids needing help with speech sounds, you’ll probably hear this word frequently!
3. Production
“Production” is another term you’re likely to hear if your child is working on articulation. It refers to the way a person says a speech sound. Your speech therapist may talk about your child’s production of their target sound–the sound they’re working on in therapy. You may hear phrases like, “He needed less help with his /r/ productions today,” or “His /s/ productions are sounding much better.”
4. Expressive and receptive language
Language can be categorized into two areas. “Expressive language” refers to the verbal and nonverbal output of communication–how a person expresses themselves. “Receptive language” refers to a person's ability to understand what’s said to them.
Both of these areas of language development are equally important. And strong skills in one area help children grow their skills in the other area.
5. Joint attention
Joint attention is one of the earlier skills of language development. Joint attention refers to a person’s ability to focus on an item or task that a partner is also focusing on. Communication cannot exist without joint attention.
For example, when two people play with a toy together, they are focused on the same task and can communicate about what they’re doing. Joint attention can even be as simple as when a baby looks at their bottle, then looks back to their caregiver. They’re letting the caregiver know that they see their bottle, and they want it fast!
6. Modeling
Modeling i s when a speech therapist or caregiver shows a child how to do something. This can mean modeling gestures, like teaching a baby to wave goodbye or use simple signs. It can also refer to someone modeling words or sounds for a child to imitate.
7. Imitation
Speaking of imitation, in the context of communication development, it refers to when a child repeats what is modeled to them, whether it’s a gesture, sound, or word. Imitation is frequently used to teach new skills. Speech therapists watch for children to begin imitating a new skill before being able to do it independently.
When your speech therapist is helping your child with a new skill, they will provide cueing. Cueing refers to the different types of assistance a speech therapist gives your child to help them say a new sound or master a new skill.
For example, if your child is learning the /l/ sound, their speech-language pathologist may give them verbal cueing. They may say something like, “Remember, your tongue moves up for this sound,” instead of actually showing your child how to do it.
Children need different types of cueing, and the type and amount of cueing will likely change throughout the course of treatment. The objective is for your child to be meeting their goals with as minimal cueing as possible by the end of their time in speech therapy.
What does “fluency” mean? Fluency refers to the smoothness and continuity of a person’s speech. When people receive speech therapy for stuttering , it is often called fluency treatment.
10. Pragmatics
What is “pragmatics”? Pragmatics refers to the social language we use when we’re interacting with others. Examples include being able to stay on topic within a conversation, not interrupting when someone else is talking, and using appropriate nonverbal communication with the person with whom you’re speaking.
11. Evaluation
A speech-language evaluation is often completed at the first visit with a speech therapist. An evaluation is the testing that a speech therapist performs to assess a child’s current communication strengths and weaknesses. The results of the evaluation determine whether the child needs speech therapy and what the goals of that therapy will be.
12. Treatment
If you hear a speech therapist talk about “treatment” or a “treatment plan,” they’re simply referring to speech therapy.
13. Referral/script
If you’re seeking speech therapy for your child and you’re told you need a referral or a script, this means a referral from your doctor. Many people may not realize that in order for health insurance to authorize speech therapy, a statement from the pediatrician confirming the need for a speech-language evaluation is needed.
We hope this glossary of common terms sets you up for success in communicating with your speech therapist. But remember, you can always ask if there’s something that needs an explanation. Your speech therapist will be happy to address it!

Synonyms and Antonyms: Vocabulary and Literacy Development
Literacy and Language Therapy
We Make Teaching Synonyms and Antonyms a Cinch!
Our students may experience a myriad of emotions when they can and can’t express themselves effectively, ranging from feelings of accomplishment and equality with their peers to a sense of frustration and anxiety when they compare their communication skills with others in their environment.
As speech-language pathologists, one of our goals is to support students so that they stand out in a positive way when they communicate. WE CAN help them to effectively access their lexicons and answer questions in a timely manner. WE CAN help children with their phonological development. WE CAN help children with their writing. We CAN help second language learners learn vocabulary in another language in addition to navigating their communication impairment. How?
Research on Vocabulary Growth
Here’s a research snapshot demonstrating the importance of vocabulary growth and its connection to literacy skills. Keep in mind the powerful role we can play in fostering vocabulary development by teaching synonyms and antonyms!
Oral language forms the base of reading and writing (Kamhi, A.G., & Catts, H.W. , 2012)
“… deficits in oral language have been found to be both a cause and a consequence of literacy problems (ASHA, 2001, p. 33).’”
Vocabulary development can influence phonological development (Lonigan, 2007)
300 to 400 new words per year can be taught through direct instruction (Stahl & Shiel, 1999).
Vocabulary in grade 1 predicts more than 30% of grade 11 reading comprehension, much more than reading mechanics in grade 1 (Cunningham & Stanovich, 1997)

Hey there. Many of my students have goals for vocabulary and therefore work on synonyms. I wanted to get away from worksheets that they don’t really seem to enjoy and frankly neither do I . So I took matters into my own hands. My kids like games, I like games, so I figured it wouldn’t hurt to get creative. Soooo here we go. For my first, second, and third graders I made Synonym Sandwich. Partially inspired by my love for PB&J, yum!
I like to use this to progress monitor for my data tracking
Students pick a card and state the synonym for the word on the card. If they draw an ant card, it eats their sandwich pieces. Your students can win by having the most amount of cards, being able to make the most sandwiches, etc., really whatever you want to play for that day. I like using synonyms to help my kids with vocabulary. Giving them another strategy and another verbal tool for their tool box is not a bad thing, as long as its not overloading them of course.
I cam across this great post from Speech Peeps, guest blogging on Speech Room News. Her post, (with research!) was really interesting. Here is the link to check it out. http://speechroomnews.blogspot.com/2012/11/evidence-based-vocabulary-instruction.html If you liked Synonym Sandwiches it is up on my TpT store. http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Synonym-Sandwiches-A-Common-Core-Aligned-Activity
My kids really enjoy it. Although playing it clothes to lunch can be dangerous 🙂 I use a black top hat for them to choose the cards out of instead of just choosing from a deck to kick up the fun factor.

What is a synonym?
Synonyms are words that mean the same thing!
For example, if we said the elephant is big or the elephant is large, that would mean the same thing!
A synonym for the word “synonym” could be “opposite”!
A synonym is like having two words that mean almost the same thing.
Imagine you have a big smile on your face, right? Now, if I say you’re ‘happy,’ that’s one way to say it. But guess what? I can also say you’re ‘joyful,’ and it means the same thing – it’s like a fancy friend for ‘happy’!
So, synonyms are like buddies that mean the same thing. They help make our talking and writing more interesting and fun!

Build Your Child’s Vocabulary with Synonyms and Antonyms
Vocabulary size is extremely important in developing reading skills.
“Children with larger vocabularies become better readers, writers, thinkers, and overall communicators.” – Kimberly Scanlon, M.A., CCC-SLP
An excellent way to grow your child’s vocabulary is to introduce categories of synonyms and antonyms.
Synonyms are words that have similar meanings, while antonyms are words that have opposite meanings.
Introducing your child to synonyms and antonyms will help him or her to communicate with more clarity and precision. Knowing exactly what you want to say is very empowering.
