I am currently utilizing Dr. Jakielski's Building Speech system, where we begin with pattern 1, CVs, then moving to pattern 2 of reduplicated syllables, then pattern 3, which is consonants in an open word shape: CVCV (i.e., "cookie"). Per Nancy Kaufman's approach, close approximations of the targeted words are accepted, then shaped into a closer match to the target word. Principle's of motor learning guide my treatment, and I have taught classes to graduate students on childhood apraxia of speech. I instill in my students the knowledge of motor learning principles to guide their thinking about apraxia.
