What happens during a speech and language evaluation?
During your child’s speech and language evaluation, a speech language pathologist will conduct a parent interview to obtain background information pertinent to your child’s speech and language abilities. Formal and informal assessments of your child’s speech and language skills will also be completed. Formal assessments can include standardized tests or parent report questionnaires. Informal Assessments can include observation of your child’s speech and language skills during play or conversation.
