Early, Persistent and Remediated Speech Sound Disorders: There is more to the story (Live Webinar)
October 04, 2018
Webinar
Do you wonder why you have children on your caseload who have had the same speech sound production errors for years? Do you wonder what you can do to help the 5th grader who continues to have trouble with the /r/ sound? Do you wonder what happens to these children after they are off your caseload? This webinar will discuss these and other questions that the presenter herself had as a practicing school-based SLP and that she now attempts to solve as a researcher. In this webinar, she will explore the factors that influence language, literacy, and cognitive skills for children with early, persistent, and remediated speech sound disorders. The discussion will include how SLPs can help these children more quickly as well as assessment considerations for ensuring the best outcomes from intervention.
