TalkTools® Horn #11
Horn #11 is the penultimate step in the TalkTools® Horn Hierarchy, a 12-level program that systematically increases the effort required to produce sound by blowing through each horn. As one of the most challenging horns in the hierarchy, Horn #11 is used with clients who have already demonstrated success through the earlier levels and are building toward maximum respiratory and oral motor output.
Therapy Goals
- Develop maximal controlled oral airflow and breath support for blowing tasks
- Strengthen lip seal and oral motor coordination under high-resistance conditions
- Build sequential respiratory skill through the TalkTools Horn Hierarchy
- Support phoneme production and speech clarity through structured blowing progression
- Facilitate turn-taking and phoneme imitation at an advanced level
- Advanced hierarchy step: level 11 of 12 in the TalkTools Horn Hierarchy
- Progressive resistance: builds oral motor strength systematically
- Clear auditory feedback: reinforces successful blowing attempts
- No batteries or cables required: simple to use in any setting
- Program-based design: intended for use within the Horn Kit under therapist guidance
- Clients who have completed Horns #1 through #10 in the TalkTools Horn Hierarchy
- Individuals with autism, childhood apraxia of speech, or motor speech disorders
- Clients with velo-pharyngeal insufficiency working toward maximum airflow control
- SLPs and OTs implementing the TalkTools Horn Kit program
- School-based, early intervention, and private practice settings
