This ASHA CEU Course #378,  Teaching Vowels and Initial Consonants to Improve Speech Intelligibility, explained the 2nd and 3rd speech/phonological patterns to prioritize when working with toddlers with speech intelligibility issues – correct vowels and initial consonants.  Clinicians learned to explain to parents why each is important to speech development and how to determine if their toddler uses this pattern in spontaneous utterances. Early target words and activities were reviewed for teaching vowels and initial consonants to toddlers.
