How Can We Reduce Prompt Dependency for Children Who Are Gestalt Language Processors?

Gestalt language processing is a style in which the child processes and understands language as a whole rather than breaking it down into its parts. For instance, instead of understanding each word in a sentence separately, children who are gestalt language processors often learn and recall phrases and sentences as a single unit or chunk. While this can be an effective way to communicate initially, it may lead to communication frustration, inflexible language use and difficulties generalising.
