As we all know being a Speech-Language Pathologist on the road and in the school districts can be a lonely world. We rarely have a chance to consult with fellow SLPs and dream of the time to shadow others to pick up new skills and ideas. This is the bad and the ugly of our profession. I feel fortunate to have the ability to post and share ideas and thoughts on this blog and to have the opportunity to read and discover that other SLPs have wonderful and informative blogs out there too.
This week's resources stem from my recent visit to one of my client's preschools. I am always excited to be invited to a school setting to observe and provide guidance to the general education team. Last week I met a wonderful group of educators who, although scared of the unknown, asked for help. I take my responsibility to educate the general public about the world of Speech and Language Pathology very seriously. Of course, we do not have enough time in the day to be in multiple places at once (AI Technology just has to work faster, we need teleporting technology now StarTrek creators).
One Place for Special Needs
This is a wonderful resource that is just a hub of all things parents/educators/professionals may need when working with children with special needs. They even have videos!!
Miami-Dade Public County Schools
This PPCD resource has many ready to use boards and activities, the catch
is that you have to have Boardmaker Software to view, save or print these
resources. I do not know how many of you have access to Boardmaker Software. If you do not have it I strongly encourage you to spend the money or become really good friends with someone who has a copy.
The website also has a great series of handouts for parents under the FOR FAMILIES heading. Why reinvent the wheel? I am appreciative of these resources and the wonderful people that created them. Enjoy!
