StudeNt id: SolutioN
Sr.
Ali, a seven-year-old boy, has trouble speaking clearly. He uses short and broken sentences and often cannot find the right words to say what he wants. At school, he finds it hard to understand when the teacher gives long or difficult instructions. He often looks confused and does not know what to do. His classmates sometimes make fun of him, which makes him feel sad and shy.
Language
Disorder
Ali struggles with both understanding (receptive language difficulty) and selfexpression (expressive language difficulty). His short, fragmented sentences and trouble following directions point to a language disorder rather than a speech-only problem.
Aima, a 6-year-old school student, has trouble saying some words clearly. She often says "tar" when she wants to say "star" and "shtreet" instead of "street." Because of this, her classmates and teachers sometimes find it hard to understand what she is saying. She tries to speak, but the sounds don't come out the right way. This sometimes makes her feel shy while talking in class or during group activities.
Disorder
Disorder)
Aima struggles to pronounce some sounds correctly, such as "tar" for "star" and "shtreet" for "street," which are common symptoms of a speech sound disorder. She struggles to make the right sounds, but she knows what she wants to say.
Ahad, a 9-year-old boy, finds it hard to understand how to talk
Social
(Pragmatic)
Ahad finds it difficult to communicate socially through with others. He doesn’t make eye contact while speaking, and his voice sounds flat or without emotion. During group activities, he struggles to take turns and sometimes talks when it’s not his turn. His teachers say that he seems unaware of the little social rules that help people talk and connect better.
Communication
Disorder
both verbal and nonverbal means (e.g., not making eye contact, flat voice, trouble taking turns in conversation). These are typical symptoms of a social communication disorder, which emphasizes conversational norms over linguistic comprehension or speech clarity.
Zaeem, a 10-year-old student, has had trouble speaking smoothly since he was 4 years old. He often repeats the beginning sounds of words like “w-w-w-when” or “c-cc-cow,” and sometimes gets stuck when trying to say something. Because of this, some of his classmates make fun of him, which makes him feel nervous and shy about speaking in class. He now tries to avoid answering questions or talking in front of others, even though he knows the right answers.
Fluency Disorder
(Stuttering)
Zaeem exhibits traits of stuttering, a form of fluency disorder, by repeating sounds and becoming stuck on words. One common secondary behavior linked to stuttering is his avoidance of speaking situations.
A 5-year-old, Ahmad, in kindergarten finds it hard to say certain sounds when he talks. He often says "wabbit" instead of "rabbit" and "thoup" instead of "soup." He tries his best, but the words don’t always sound right. Because of this, he sometimes feels upset and doesn’t want to talk much during playtime or story time.
Disorder
Disorder)
Ahmad's sound substitutions point to an Articulation Disorder, a subtype of Speech Sound Disorder in which he frequently mispronounces specific speech sounds.
