Speech-Language Milestones
Articulation is the way a student produces individual sounds. Students with articulation disorders are difficult to understand as a result of their errors. Oftentimes, errors are developmental and will come eventually as the student matures.

Language encompasses receptive(what the student understands) and expressive(what the student can express either verbally or nonverbally)language skills.

Speech pathologists in the school system have to show that the communication impairment negatively impacts the student's academics and access to the general curriculum.

Other communication impairments fall under fluency(flow of verbal speech), voice(quality or pitch of voice), and oral-motor skills(movement and strength of speech musculature such as tongue, lips etc...).
