Good day! I am a grad. student and working with a 12 yr old client in school. She needs to focus on many things, mostly interjections, desensitization, & slow rate. Do you have any activity suggestions for working on the use of interjections. She is stuttering on the interjections as well. Her DFI with interjections included (when stuttered on was 18% and without including interjections was .05%. I realize that eliminating interjections may increase the total the DFI, but it is a step in the right direction I believe. I have been pointing use of interjections during conversation, but I feel she does not like being interrupted. How can I make this fun for her? -- Thanks
