NOW ENROLLING

ELF is a group treatment program created for speech and language delayed preschoolers between the ages of 3-5. This program uses a child-centered approach for speech and language acquisition. New speech and language skills are reinforced through group activities, dramatic play and peer interaction. Children attending the ELF program receive intensive speech/language treatment - attending 4 days/week, 2.5 hours each day.

Daily speech & language stimulation in the ELF program includes:

Responding to greetings and social questions
Acquisition of new vocabulary (expressive & receptive) related to themes, the calendar and weather
Attempting and practicing articulation of all English phonemes
Asking and answering questions
Making requests and providing information
Effective communication with peers
