This presentation describes the Prosodic Teaching Model which is an integrated approach to viewing the prosody of speech and language impaired persons. The Prosodic Teaching Model consists of two major divisions: prosodic features and prosodic components. The prosodic features include pitch, loudness, duration, and pause; the prosodic components comprise tempo, intonation, stress, and rhythm.
