Written in the best-selling format of the Workbook of Activities for Language and Cognition

series, these activities have:

  • simple, concise language
  • consistent progression of complexity within and between tasks
  • application to a wide range of acquired cognitive-language disorders

Convenient, ready-to-use activities feature illustrations and formats designed especially for persons with neurological injury. Many of the tasks can be used to address co-existing deficits in concentration, memory, reasoning, and problem solving.

  • Nonverbal Communication — Communicate by using gestures and pantomime.
  • Oral Motor /Speech Production — Practice phoneme-specific exercises ranging from the single word level to sentence level.

  • Auditory Comprehension — Exercises progress from single word comprehension and discrimination to comprehending and recalling multiple paragraph information. Clients answer yes/no questions, follow directions, listening for details, detect and understand humor, and answer questions about stories.
  • Reading Comprehension — Exercises progress from recognition of individual letters all the way through the paragraph and functional reading level. Reading tasks are done with and without picture supports.
