    Natural language acquisition can be broken down into the following six stages:

    1. Gestalts

    2. Mitigated Gestalts

    3. Isolation and Combination of Single Words

    4. *Self-Generated Phrases and Simple Sentences

    5. *Self-Generated Sentences Used in Everyday Situations

    6. *Self-Generated Sentences Used in Complex Situations

    *These stages begin to incorporate grammatical components of language (i.e., verb structures)

    Gestalts can often be derived from media, which is challenging for therapists/caregivers to complete “detective work” in order to gather contextual meaning. Here are some resources for websites which find audio/video source for gestalts:

    • Play Phrase

    • Yarn

    • Subzin

    • QuoDB

    • Pop Mystic
