Why use auditory bombardment

Evidence shows that brief periods of auditory bombardment targeting a particular grammatical goal can help kids to learn it, especially if used in conjunction with other speech pathology techniques, like recasting Plante et al. For example, imagine this conversation with a child targeting plural s. Adult: Yes, the cat s do! Those cat s all have pointy ear s. Their ear s are pointy. The cat s have such pointy ear s! After up to 30 minutes of recasting i.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with playing the recordings before you work on the target, or even as a standalone activity, e. We recommend playing the recording at least once a day, five days a week for at least two consecutive weeks. In addition to helping the child, we find that listening to the target over and over also helps parents remember what to focus on when talking and playing with their children. Modelling via auditory bombardment with adult recasting appears to be effective in helping kids to improve their word and sentence forms grammar.

Audio bombardment only takes a couple of minutes a day, and can help parents remember what to focus on when talking with their kids and recasting what they say. There is a small but measurable advantage to following recast treatment with a period of auditory bombardment. Abstract Purpose: Modeling of grammatical forms has been used in conjunction with conversational recast treatment in various forms.
