Oral Structures & Feeding Reference Items
Oral structures and feeding-reference terms form one area of the catalog, separate from a clinical finding.
Therapatic target library
Reference terminology, with a clear clinical boundary.
Explore reference content for oral structures, movement, food and drink textures, feeding and swallowing. This catalog area helps professionals organize terminology and material. It is not a set of exercises, a swallowing protocol or instructions for home practice.
The figures below describe the English reference library—not a learner’s plan or a promise that every item suits every child.
- 156Targets
- 4Ready-made sets

Four reference areas, kept distinct.
These examples come from this language’s reference catalog. They illustrate the scope; the figures above cover the whole category.
Oral Movement Reference Items
Movement-reference items organize terminology; inclusion does not recommend performing a movement or exercise.
Feeding Texture & Mealtime Reference Items
Texture and mealtime-reference material is not a recommendation to change food or drink consistency.
Feeding, Oral-Sensory & Swallowing Reference Items
Feeding, oral-sensory and swallowing terms stay within a reference context requiring specialist interpretation.
From reference content to an individual goal.
Start with the learner’s context. Use the library to organize content while keeping clinical decisions within the individual plan.
- 1Confirm the specialist purpose
A qualified professional identifies whether this reference area is relevant to the planned work.
- 2Review and select relevant sets
Review the relevant terminology and sets without turning reference labels into exercise instructions.
- 3Connect content to the sub-goal
Where appropriate, connect selected content to a defined sub-goal; clinical protocols and safety decisions remain separate.
Goals, targets and sets: what’s the difference?
A goal defines what the child will learn and how progress is measured. Targets provide practice items that can be used within it.
- GoalThe therapist defines what the child will learn, how to teach it and how to measure progress. Assigning a library goal creates a separate copy for the child.
- TargetA specific practice item, such as a word, concept or skill. It is not a complete plan, and using it does not mean the child has mastered it.
- Target setRelated practice items collected in one set. Choose a ready-made set or create your own, then link it to the appropriate sub-goal.

Feeding and mealtime participation
Find content for mealtime routines, food exploration, utensils, drinking and food-safety vocabulary. This is a guide to the library’s scope, not a feeding plan or instructions to change food, drink texture or swallowing practice.

Health, body and pain communication

Speech sounds and phonological awareness
Explore sound and word material organized for the selected language. English includes word-position stimuli, sound contrasts and phonological material; Arabic includes its own letters, sound-symbol links, syllables and contrasts. Neither catalog is a word-for-word substitute for the other.

What to know before choosing content.
Are these oral-motor exercises?
This page describes reference items, not an exercise program. A reference label does not specify whether, how or when an exercise should be used.
Can a family use this page to change food texture or swallowing practice?
No. This guide provides no individual feeding or swallowing recommendations and does not authorize changes to a clinical plan.
How is this different from mealtime participation?
The mealtime guide focuses on routines, objects and participation around meals. This area groups specialist reference terminology and material.
What these figures mean
Reference version 1.0. Counts checked on October 12, 2026. These are catalog figures, not live workspace totals.
This public guide describes the catalog and its organization. Full target content and clinical use remain inside the platform, subject to access and applicable terms.
This is a product-content guide, not an assessment, diagnosis or individual therapy program. A qualified professional selects suitable content, defines the goal and decides how to teach and review it.
