My 4 (just) year old twins have started SLT and I am really feeling down. We were given a 'S' book to start with and although they can say the sound perfectly they disjoint it from the rest of the word such as, ssssss.......ink. We were given some exercises to practise but when we went back for our 2nd appointment the SLT therapist said we can't move on further in the book until they can get the blending. (I felt she was dissapointed in me/them) Have spent all week doing it twice a day and I cannot get it any closer together. I am really feeling a complete failure. Worried about School in September and thinking I should have listened to my mother who was always saying I should have been correcting from 2 years old not just repeating. Gonna go and stick my face in a HUGE bowl of ice-cream.
