Description:
This
session can help new and experienced school-based SLPs expand their impact on
the way language and literacy intervention is done in their school buildings.
SLPs have expertise in cognitive processes that impact learning across subject
areas. However, systems in place in schools can make it difficult to deliver
services that result in generalization for students. This webinar will give
SLPs practical solutions for breaking down silos within their schools; infusing
their expertise into their schools’ culture and climate; and emerging
as a leader in their schools and/or districts.
