- Speech Therapy Tips: Social Skills. Non-verbal Cues. Conversational Turn-taking. The back-and-forth of language. Rules, rules, rules. Today we are finishing up our 5-part series about the 5 main areas of language, as we explore Pragmatics, or the rules that govern our language. Pragmatics incorporates communication functions, or the purposes for which we communicate, as well as non-verbal cues and gestures. This area also includes the ability to request clarification when a message is unclear, or to provide revisions to our messages, if it seems our listener does not understand. All of these skills can be difficult to learn, especially for kiddos on the Autism spectrum.

Thank you for the video! At 13:46 I agree with you about the importance of the back-and-forth dialogue to truly speak a language in context, and how screens and tablets sometimes fail to teach us fully. However when I was around 7, I remember playing video games such as Pokemon, Harvest Moon, and Professor Layton on Nintendo where my vocabulary grew, and I was learning common phrases used in language . While I wasn't necessarily participating in a real "conversation", there was still a contextual response to my perception of the language, which helped me find meaning so I could use it later!
In Pokemon, I was seeing words like "leer", "tackle", "gust", "bind", "thrash", and ever "leer" used in context of the video game move animations, where I could see some sort of visual response and guess what the word meant. In Harvest Moon, I was learning about "assets" and various crop names that I would tend to in the game. In Professor Layton, I was solving puzzles which gave me challenge through logic, word-play, and other cues. These video games didn't teach me how to converse, but rather taught me various techniques, phrases, and words to implement in daily life! :)
First of all-- welcome!! And I'm so grateful for your interactions here! YES! and YES! I completely agree that kids/adults/ALL.OF.US!! learn through a variety of ways. And, I think your examples are incredible for how vocabulary labels are learned! And your point about, "These video games didn't teach me how to converse..," was my only point. Videos are great for learning concepts of language, but may not always model or demonstrate that back-and--forth, more conversational aspects of language and pragmatics! But, certainly I didn't mean to imply, and hope you didn't hear me say that kids can't learn anything from videos- b/c that is certainly not true & you're a living example of that! So, again, thank you for commenting! :)
THANK you! I will present this topic tomorrow in my class.
