therapists who successfully completed our advanced training, making it one of our best years ever!
we are also proud of our successful internship programs. over the last year, we’ve partnered with the
special education department of a local high school to provide internship opportunities for high school
students with special needs. in april, we partnered with tri-county autism puzzle place academy
(tcappa)
for
autism awareness month. building on the successful model of our current internship program , we developed a
summer internship program with tcappa and look forward to seeing all of our new team members each week!
below you will see a few photos of the student interns working at talktools ®. working with the interns has

Sara rosenfeld-johnson, m.S., Ccc-slp
Oral Placement TO Speech Kit (OPT-S) by Robyn Merkel-Walsh and Sara
Rosenfeld-Johnson, is an innovative articulation program designed to
translate muscle movements (from the TalkTools® hierarchies) into speech
sound production. The card set is uniquely based on jaw transitions and
the complexity of articulatory place shifts within words. Included are the
early developing phonemes m-b-p (bilabials), t-d-n (tongue retraction with tip
elevation), k-g and h (velars) and w (lip rounding). 185 cards are included
along with detailed instructions for developing individualized programs.
(NOTE: For children ages 2-6 with apraxia, please refer to The Kaufman K-SLP Treatment
Kit 1 (basic level) on page 24 of our catalog. OPT-S and The Kaufman K-SLP Treatment Kit
1 (basic level) compliment one another for children with complex speech clarity issues that
involve both muscle and motor based disorders.)

TalkTools® Apraxia Program
This versatile program, by Renee Roy Hill, is ideal for
transitioning clients with motor-planning deficits from
Oral Placement activities to speech production. The
three sets of tools - Bilabial Shapes, Tactile Tubes,
and Speech Blocks - provide tactile cueing for specific
sounds m, p, b, oo, oh, ee, ih, eh, uh and ah, so clients
can feel where the articulators should be during speech
production. This program is most effective for clients
who cannot achieve correct production of target sounds
with verbal and visual cues alone or those who do not
respond to verbal and visual cues. Included are videos
of each step, along with written instructions.

TalkTools® Nose Clips
Nose Clips are excellent for those situations where the client with whom you are working
cannot differentiate between oral and nasal airflow to successfully work through the
Horn or Bubble Hierarchy. At the outset, the clip can be used to completely restrict
nasal airflow; by adding a series of elastic bands over time, the degree of pressure the
clips exert is reduced, encouraging your client to use oral airflow on his or her own.

Oral Placement Therapy:
What a Parent Can Do
WORKSHOP
“I decided to make this video to help you, the parent,
learn what you can do at home to improve your child’s
speech clarity and feeding safety. Over the years, I
have found that parents can become great assets to
their child’s speech language pathologist, once they
understand why they are being asked to perform
certain homework assignments with their child. The
exercises shown in this video are presented in a
hierarchy of very small steps which will ensure that
your child will not only make progress but will have fun doing so. This
video is designed to not only show you what you can do to help your
child, but also explains to you why you are being asked to use specific
straws, horns or bite-tubes. In addition, watching this video will give
you the knowledge you need to become a better advocate for your child,
whether they receive speech therapy through the public school, early
intervention program, clinic, hospital or private practice. Knowledge is a
very powerful tool.”
Parents can learn “hands-on” feeding
and oral placement therapy techniques
that can be incorporated in the home.
Receive an overview of jaw grading and
dissociation skills. Learn how to use fun,
colorful tools like horns, straws, and
bubbles to increase muscle function and
how that relates to speech production.
Sara Rosenfeld-Johnson, M.S., CCC-SLP
Goals of Oral Placement/Feeding/Speech Therapy:
- Increase sensory awareness and normalize tactile sensitivity
- Teach more normal movement patterns
- Achieve differentiation of oral movements
- Enhance feeding skills for better nutritional intake
- Improve speech sound production to maximize intelligibility

Once clients have completed all steps of
the Bite Block Hierarchy, they may move
to the Jaw Exercisers. Each kit contains
two firm, reusable jaw exercisers to
address jaw stability and jaw grading
(control). These tools are appropriate
for those who need additional tactile
input for controlled movement of the
jaw for speech and feeding. Made from
FDA-approved materials. Instructions

Designed for parents, this kit includes
the tools and information you need to
start using Sara Rosenfeld-Johnson’s
Oral Placement Therapy techniques in
your own home. If you are a parent who

from Sara’s techniques, but were unsure
how to begin, this introductory kit is
exactly what you’ve been looking for.

to teach jaw position and muscle memory for standard speech sound production. Excellent for use with dysarthric apraxic/dyspraxic
clients. Includes two sets of six reusable, durable and easily cleaned Bite Blocks and instructions for use. Some clients may prefer biting
into a softer surface as they work their way through the Bite Block hierarchy. The Sensory Friendly Bite Blocks work in exactly the same
manner as the original version, but are constructed of a softer, more pliable material.

Therapists are often unsure of how to set goals that are
educationally relevant or how to produce goals that help with
insurance reimbursement. Robyn Merkel-Walsh has worked in
a public school and a private clinic since 1995. She has spent
a great deal of time writing and re-writing goals and objectives
that are client-centered, yet provide the relationship between
oral placement skills and speech production. Together with Sara
Rosenfeld-Johnson’s expertise on oral placement therapy, Oral
Placement Therapy (OPT) Goals and Objectives for IEPs and
Insurance Reimbursement was created to help therapists write
IEP goals and accurately measure progress in OPT activities used
to improve speech clarity and feeding skill levels. Use this CD to

apraxia. Each therapeutic technique can be implemented in school and/or home environments. It is recommended (not required) you

Robyn’s SMILE Program (SysteMatic Intervention for Lingual Elevation) is an effective way to help children remediate articulation
errors including persistent lisps, interdentalized productions of t-d-l-n, and distortions of sh-ch-r. Robyn discovered that by combining
oral placement, swallowing, and articulation therapies, progress rates improved. This course deals with children age seven and above
who have the cognitive ability to follow directions and to monitor their own swallow patterns. Includes one DVD, SMILE Manual,
and one CEU packet.
