A major goal of phonological intervention is to help bring a child's speech development to within normal range for his or her developmental stage. Reaching that goal may take longer than anticipatedfor some children. This paper illustrates an in–depth retrospective evaluation of assessment data from one child with a phonological impairment, who progressed slowly during intervention (Baker and McLeod, 2004). An alternative intervention plan is suggested that takes key factors from the assessment data into account, and utilizes a nonlinear phonologicalframework to set up the goal sequence. The insights gained from hindsight in this case may lead to foresight for other children s intervention programmes.
