I'm never quite sure how to classify my son. He is verbal, can tell you his

wants and is begining to speak in sentences more and more but you cannot hold

a conversation with him.

Did you ever get the DISTAR reading program?? What level of child are you

using it with??

Looking for something for my non-verbal guys, as I have had to invent one,

but looking for something better.

Is your son verbal?? My twins are non-verbal and 9.5 yo. is up to

50 words and Danny is still at 2.

I'm not familiar with the DISTAR reading, but my son started the DISTAR language

and I am trying to find a copy of that program to continue, since the program

was not continued when my son changed classes.

If your kids are computer oriented, you might want to look into the Fast ForWord

program. My son went through that program when he was 8. He had some verbal

language but it was very hard to understand. That program helped him

tremendously.

This was one of the most beneficial therapies that we have done for my son.

Stipulations of the program--child must be able to tolerate headphones and sit

at the computer for up to 1-1/2 hours (breaks permitted between segments but

can't break until completing a section) and must have the intelligence level to

be able to figure out what the program wants him to do. Intensive, 6-8 week

program, 5 days a week. It's just like discrete trial learning on the computer.

If you want further info, email me directly.
