About this event
Overview:
What is a speech language pathologist (SLP)? What are skills that are important for early communicators? What do SLPs look for when evaluating young communicators? What are some strategies that educators can implement to help foster linguistic and cultural understanding and acceptance within their classroom to help all children’s language development?
In this 2-hour session, we'll learn about how SLP’s identify and treat early communication delays and the role adults play in making sure all children get the support they need. This course will delve into a family centered approach to learning that takes a holistic look at each child’s multifaceted background.
Why I Should Attend:
SLP's are often called upon to prevent, assess, diagnose, and treat speech, language, social communication, cognitive-communication, and swallowing disorders in children and adults. But did you know they can be used to support children in speech sound production, resonance, voice, fluency, language (comprehension and expression), cognition, and more? This workshop will provide you with opportunities to learn more about SLP's frameworks and how you can scaffold that into your daily work with young children.
