[quote=Anonymous]These are semantic errors that are very common at this age due to rapid language growth. It is only a concern if it doesn't not resolve over time, if your child is not able to recognize and correct the errors, or if the errors result is significant frustration. It seems alarmist for the school to refer you for an evaluation for such a distinct issue particulary since the examples you give don't affect the listeners comprehension. It appears that communication skills are otherwise appropriate and the sentence are presented are of appropriate complexity. When this issue lingers, I typically see it in those who have language disorders, dyslexia, and/or ADHD. ADHD is almost always in the mix. -SLP[/quote]
