Boerne Mayor A. E. Howell, Jr.,
has proclaimed April 28—May 4 as
Private Property Week. Emily
Swope, president of the Kendall
County Board of Realtors, said this
annual event is designed to remind
citizens of their right to town
property.
“Owning your own home is still
the American dream and a funda-
mental human right,” she said.
The mayoral proclamation says
home ownership encourages savings
in many sectors of the economy,
creating growth and contributing to
a higher quality of life.
Over 50,000 Realtors in Texas are
marking Private Property Week
with community-oriented programs
and activities, said Robert F.
Wertheimer, president of the Texas
Association of Realtors.

COLLEGE STATION—It’s
called the Aggie Seat, and it’s a
knot—not a joke—that could
save lives.
Developed during rescue
training drills at the Texas En-
gineering Extension Service’s
Fire Protection Training Divi-
sion, the Aggie Seat is a new
rescue knot that is proving to
be a valuable alternative to the
Swiss seat and the standard re-
scue basket used to rescue un-
conscious people from such cir-
cumstances as being trapped
with one’s legs entangled in the
rungs of a caged ladder.
“We’ve found that in most
instances where the standard
life basket was used, the Aggie
Seat was quicker to rig, more
comfortable for the victim, and
allowed more versatility,” ac-
cording to an article in Fire
Engineer magazine written by
veteran rescue specialist Leo
O’Campo, a former rescue
training instructor for TEEX,

University.

SPEECH THERAPIST
The majority of children in a
public school speech therapy
program are working on articula-
tion problems. This most often
means they are substituting a sound
they can produce, such as the “th”,
for a sound they cannot produce,
such as the “s”.
Teaching the child to hear his
error and correctly produce the
desired sound is the first order of
business in articulation therapy.
This phase of correction is generally
of relative short duration.
The remainder of therapy
concerns itself with activities
designed to help the child incorpor-
ate his “new” or “good speech”
sound into his every-day conversa-
tion, a process known as “carry-
over therapy”.
The goal of carryover therapy is
to make the desired sound produc-
tion a habit which does not require
thought or effort.
By the end of the school year,
most children in speech therapy are
familiar with carryover activities

designed to help them maintain a
desired speech sound. Children with
an articulation problem can,
however, easily lose the gains made
during the school year if carryover
activities are not continued during
the summer.
Family members can and should
become involved in providing the
child with opportunities to reinforce
his good speech habits. Such
activities provide family members
with an understanding of the
difficulty of speech correction and
an excellent support/motivation
system for the child trying to
correct speech sounds.
The following activities are
simple and easily adapted to the
needs and age levels of children in
the speech therapy program.
Parents can follow the activities
they feel will be of interest to their
child or use these suggestions as a
guide to create more appropriate
activities. Carryover therapy can be
a lot of fun for the child, parents and
big or little brothers and sisters.
It can help younger children
correctly learn difficult speech

patterns by making them more
aware of speech sounds. It gives
parents a chance to become per-
sonally involved in the speech
correction of their child and can be
an immensely rewarding effort for
all concerned.
Try some of these activities and
make it a “Good Speech” summer
for your child!
1. Make or purchase colorful
letters which represent your child’s
speech sound.
Mount them in conspicuous places
around the house, such as the
refrigerator door, the bathroom
mirror and/or the door to your
child’s room. Have the child produce
his speech sound each time he sees
one of the letters.
2. Have your child make a “good
speech” notebook during the
summer.
Cut out pictures of objects con-
taining the desired sound and paste
them in a notebook. Use the note-
book pictures to help your child
make up sentences and/or stories to
tell to the family.
3. Read your child a story.
While reading, deliberately
mispronounce your child’s speech
sound and have him catch and
correct you.
4. Have your child write or draw
pictures for a short story containing
his speech sound.
Let him read or tell you the story
using his sound correctly.
5. Draw or cut out pictures con-
taining the speech sound and tie
them with colored yarn to a coat
hanger to make a mobile.
Place the coat hanger over an
often used doorway in your home
sometime each week. Each family
member must produce a word with
the desired speech sound when they
pass under the mobile.
6. Have your child listen to the
evening weather report with the
family.
Everyone keep a total of the
number of times the reporter used
the child’s speech sound. Discuss
the importance of good speech
habits in different professions.
7. Designate the first ten minutes
of a meal as a “good speech” time.
All family members pay particu-
lar attention to speech articulation
during this time period while
pretending they are presenting a
live television performance.
8. Create a “speech bank.”
Each time the child is heard to
mispronounce his sound, he is
charged a penny. Family members
may occasionally mispronounce the
child’s speech sound. If the child can
catch and correct them, the family
member must pay a penny to the
“speech bank”.
When enough money has accumu-
lated, buy the child a candy or ice
cream to reward his continuing
efforts towards good speech.
9. Look for red cars while driving
on a trip.
Family members take turns
producing a word with the desired
sound each time a red car is seen.
10. Encourage the child to play
“school” with the other family
members.
The child is the “speech teacher”
and teaches good speech sounds to
family members who deliberately
