Speech and language development is the most important and difficult obstacle for autistic children. Many star parents report that children can pronounce it simply, but when talking to others, they always like to repeat other people's words.
For example, someone asked the autistic child Xiaoheng, what is your name? The child will say, what is your name?
The other party replied: My name is Xiaoyu. The child soldier would also say: My name is Xiaoyu.
Obviously, this is wrong, and it also makes the problem of repeated in the conversation.
So, many star parents began to worry, often supplemented by "intimidation" and "bribery" to force their children to learn pronunciation and no longer repeat the other party's words. In fact, autistic children always repeat the other person's words. It's not that they do it intentionally or intentionally, but that they cannot realize this. At the same time, for Xing's parents, they have made many mistakes intentionally or unintentionally.
These errors include, The child did not listen to the other person's language clearly. Not only did the parents repeat the instructions constantly, but they also added new vocabulary . The difficulty of language understanding increases, causing the child to be even more incomprehensible and cannot play an auxiliary role.
Next, role error, broken ring interaction . In some conversations, they are conversations between friends and children, but in the middle, parents intervene in the conversation, destroying the interactive relationship between teachers and children. In the intervention of parents, the dialogue relationship is invisibly transformed from teacher and child to parent and child.
In terms of autism treatment, most of them currently use early intervention and rehabilitation. The best rehabilitation period for autism is 3-6 years old. Therefore, early detection, early intervention, and then early rehabilitation training are particularly important for the treatment of children with autism. So how should autism rehabilitation training be done? How should parents cooperate?
autism treatment rehabilitation training
. Daily training: Because autism children have relatively rigid behavior, if they form good living habits, children can easily persist and benefit for life. Therefore, when they reach a certain age, they should teach their children to eat, dress and other daily habits.
. Special training: If the child has relatively outstanding performance or problems in a certain aspect, special training can be adopted in a targeted manner. Parents can usually use diary to observe the correction effect of the child and be clear.
3. Language training: Most autistic patients have great obstacles in language and communication. Parents should help their children create a language environment, talk to their children as much as possible, correct their children's pronunciation, and let their children play with children of the same age or play games with adults. This will naturally produce some effects over time.
At the same time, there are some other common methods for children to always repeat other people's words.
First of all, parents should understand what dialogue is
In layman's terms, it is a way of talking back and forth in the process of language communication and communication. When communicating with children, especially in the early stages, the interveners are mostly questioners. Many times, dialogue ability is also a very important training content. The questions commonly used are:
General questions: What is this?
positive and negative questions: Is this?
right and wrong questions: What is this?
Right and wrong questions: Is this?
Select questions : Is this A or B?
Secondly, parents should analyze the reasons for their children's repeated questions
mainly includes:
1. Habitually imitate;
2. Do not understand the form of conversation;
3. Do not understand the role in the conversation;
4. Do not understand the meaning of the question asked by the other party;
5. The sentence is too long and the child has weak hearing breadth.
Further, the deeper reason is:
1. habitually imitates . There are many forms of imitation speech practice: imitation speech, dialogue, etc.
In addition, the person prompted in the conversation does not participate in the conversation, which means that the person asking the question should not prompt. The child said that the answer involves the second question.
2. does not understand the dialogue form .
① has always been a form of imitation, listening to instructions or retelling, and children have few interactive languages like this;
② First, there is a form of questioning in life, which may be because of attention problems, problems that are too difficult to ask questions, or the child has not developed the habit of responding to other people's words or instructions; second, the child has not participated in the complete dialogue form;
3. does not understand the roles in dialogue .
In the conversation, if the person who asked the question is also the person who reminds the question and the conversation, the child remembers both the question and the conversation, but he doesn't know that these two sentences should be said by different people.
4. does not understand the meaning of the question asked by the other party .
① The child is weak in ability;
② The child is visual learning type, relying solely on listening, not understanding, and needs to add gestures to combine the situation; or the child is auditory learning type, and answering questions is routine. If he asks in a familiar way, he will be able to answer. If he doesn't ask in his routine or uses similar words, the child will not answer. It means that sight, hearing, thinking and speaking are not integrated, and the ability to integrate needs to be strengthened;
③ There is not enough accumulation of vocabulary, unified situations or things, and asked different words, the child will not understand. Or weak cognitive ability (shape, color, number, belonging, etc.);
④ The words used when asking questions are too abstract;
⑤ Use personal pronouns too early, especially when there are only two people, do not use you, me and the child to practice dialogue. You should call the other person by name, otherwise the child will use it repeatedly;
⑥ is not concise in terms of the language and the child cannot grasp the key points, so repeat the first half or the second half.
What are the solutions for children to repeat?
must set up a role environment such as instructors, imitators, guides, etc. in the natural environment. Let children learn to talk to themselves through teaching, imitate and guide different roles, and no longer reward them in time if they say it right, and correct them in time if they say it wrong.
Specifically, it includes the following aspects:
. Habitual imitation
① Imitation practice requires various forms. Declarative imitation and question-and-answer sentences;
② prompts that the person who answers the question will not participate in the other party, and the position you are standing behind the child.
. Do not understand the dialogue form
①Develop the habit of letting children respond to others, regardless of whether they answer correctly or not, let children feel the complete dialogue form;
②Touch different sentence patterns, use different sentence patterns or voice to communicate with children, and you can also show the dialogue process to children in different roles.
3. Don’t understand the role in the conversation
Among them, the second and third items are actually corrections for improper intervention in the early stage. If we intervene properly from the beginning, the possibility of these two items appearing will be much less.
① In the conversation, the questioner should not prompt the child’s answer;
② When intervening, it is prompted to seize the opportunity.
4. Don’t understand the meaning of the question asked by the other party
① Weak ability: strengthen cognitive understanding ability and strengthen it from every detail of life; such as the relationship between nouns, verbs, and adjectives;
②Visual learning type: first talk and then add gestures to develop the habit of listening, and then integrate what you hear and see. Auditory learning type: First, ensure that the child is watching and ask questions on the premise of visual prompts;
③ Vocabulary accumulation is insufficient:
A. Accumulate more, generalize and accumulate vocabulary in life.
generalization should be appropriate. A scene or item should be described in advance, and then different words should be described after mastering it;
B. Improve cognitive ability.
④Types are too abstract: use words intuitively → abstractly, let children understand what this abstract word specifically refers to. The content of the question should be in line with the child's ability level, and then ask after cognitive understanding. Receive sexual understanding first, and then ask questions;
⑤Don’t use personal pronouns too early:
Personal pronouns generally need to be 2 or 3 years old (ability), and children of moderate levels must be 4 years old before using
You can first let the child understand, call himself and others by name, and slowly use you and me to call himself and others.
Example: Understanding, answering without personal pronouns.
Is this Xiaogang's cup? - Is this your cup?
Use personal pronouns when answering, but there is no personal pronoun in the question. For example, whose is this?
⑥ The terms are not concise, so the children cannot grasp the key points: the terms should be concise and clear, example: go and get the mother's cup.
5. Sentences are too long, and children cannot listen to them completely
① Strengthen auditory breadth exercises;
② Disconnect the sentences at the appropriate time and say them separately so that the children can hear more clearly;
③Please consider the words to ask questions based on the child's ability level;
④From simple sentences to complex sentences;
⑤Select the question sentences and find two items with big differences for the child to choose, and try to be consistent in his heart and speech.
6. Principles of dialogue exercises
① Understand first, then ask questions;
② More narration, ask less questions;
③ Prompt the person not to participate in the dialogue;
④ The terms are concise and clear;
④ l2
⑤ Ask questions based on the child's ability level;
⑥ Combined with scenes;
⑦ From easy to difficult, step by step;
⑧ Do not let the child memorize the answers, be sure to ask questions on the premise of understanding;
⑨Assisted in a timely and appropriate manner. Tips: After thinking, before making an error;
⑩ Don’t cram temporarily. Use your skills in daily life, pay attention to practice and accumulation in life;
⑪ Before asking questions, you should attract your child’s attention and let your child pay attention to what we say and point to.
Children's speech and language development occurs with cognition. It is impossible to learn to pronounce without cognitive ability. Only repeated pronunciation and language cannot be cognitive. It takes a long-term process and the patience of parents and teachers to prevent autistic children from repeating other people's questions and to be able to understand and master pronunciation.
How can parents cooperate with their children to better conduct language training?
Autism rehabilitation training is a long-term process. As the first teacher of their children, parents play a great role in training.
In this process, parents first accept autistic children and cannot dislike them. must constantly communicate with the children with emotional so that the children can feel the love of their parents. Then parents also need to to continuously train the life skills of children with . A simple action may be learned by teaching a normal child once, while autistic children may need to teach 20 or even 100 times. At this time, parents must be patient and hold the mentality of never giving up.
After the long-term persistence of parents, in theory, children with autism can reach the level of self-care, and even after adulthood, they can still engage in some simple jobs. So when an autistic adult starts to work, in addition to parents, what he needs is the acceptance from society and people in society.Autistic patients can improve their condition through work, but they cannot let autistic patients be hurt at work. The cold view of others and the social disacceptance will affect the condition of autism.
