The Late Eight, now in its second edition, is a popular resource for clinicians, students, and academics working with students whose speech contains errors affecting [th] (voiced theta), [th] (unvoiced theta), [s], [z], [l], [r], [sh], or [ts]. Additionally, vocalic [r] is included because it often serves as a step to reaching consonantal [r]. The late eight are typically the last acquired by English-speaking children, and they are the sounds most likely to challenge school-aged students and non-native English speakers, both children and adults.For the second edition, a new chapter, written by Carlin Hageman, offers a motor learning perspective on assessing and treating the late eight. In addition, the companion DVD includes a motor learning guided (MLG) demonstration video to supplement Chapter 12, Motor Learning Guided Therapy, which shows several applications of the principles of MLG therapy. This video is not intended to be a prescription for using MLG therapies; rather, a place to begin the development of individual strategies for each client.Resources for each late-acquired sound include: Technical and non-technical definitions Age of acquisition Common errors Key phonetic environments Useful metaphors Touch cues Initial screening tests Stimulability tests Demonstrations of place, manner, and voicing Phonetic placement and shaping techniques Speech exercises Language awareness and speech activities List of words divided by phonetic and word environments Minimal pairs A companion CD contains reproducible cheat sheets, exercises, and word lists for clinical use. Included in these materials are: 24 different demonstrations of place, manner, and voicing More than 70 phonetic placement and shaping techniques Different types of speech exercises 35 language awareness and speech activities More than 4,000 words divided by phonetic and word environments More than 2,200 minimal pairs.
