Inhaltsangabe

This guide outlines a program to help older elementary children and teens with selective mutism, stuttering, or social communication difficulties learn social language skills for conversations, generate voice, and ease anxiety. It consists of three modules meant to expand functional communication in conversations, particularly voice initiation techniques and speech sound production to make vocalization easier, social pragmatics skills to build spontaneous verbal communication for conversation, and conversational role-plays in simulated settings that incorporate cognitive restructuring. Each module provides background information, the theoretical framework, and activities or scenarios. Online access to a companion website with interactive activities is provided.
