Camp Chit Chat
Camp CHIT CHAT is a fun and socially interactive camp for preschool-kindergarten age children. It’s a great way for children to keep up with all of his/her
communication skills during the summer when regular therapy services are not offered. Each camp participant will be placed in a small group (2-3 children) with same-aged peers also working on similar skills such as articulation, language, fluency and social communication.
All we need is your child’s current IEP. If your child does not have a current IEP, then he/she will be screened by one of our therapists to ensure the appropriateness of the camp. NO EVALUATIONS will be conducted for the summer camp.
CAMP CURRICULUM
Each weekly camp session builds upon the other and focuses on helping each child in acquiring a foundation of the following communication skills: improved articulation due to speech delays such as apraxia and phonological delays, social communication with peers and staff, receptive language skills (questions, vocabulary, concepts, grammar) expressive language skills (sentence length, vocabulary, categories, grammar, questions) and fluency of speaking.
