Just for Adults: Word Relationships
Kathryn J. Tomlin
Learn and practice four different types of word relationships to help your adolescent and adult clients add “colour” to their every day communication.
Benefits
- Gives direct practice in using the word relationships of opposites, synonyms, words with multiple meanings, and analogies
- Improves communication and makes word finding and descriptions easier
- Designed so that exercises can be completed in multiple ways:
- clients read items silently and complete them independently
- clients read task items aloud and perform the action or write the response
- read the items to the client and have the client respond appropriately
- Improves mental manipulation skills by requiring clients to receive and analyse new information
- Content of the activities reflects a wide variety of language needed for everyday functioning
- Larger type allows clients to read the pages independently
- Simple directions and clutter-free pages make the format easy to use
- Ready-to-give screening tool makes it easier to observe the client’s use of strategies and reasoning patterns before designing therapy
- Caregiver friendly and easy to use at home
