As speech-language pathologists, we focus a lot of our time with students on developing their speech and oral language. However, an aspect that we’re starting to focus on is reading. Even though reading is in our wheelhouse, research has shown that SLPs feel less confident in teaching or focusing on it during their speech therapy sessions. Our guest on the podcast, Elizabeth Doherty, is a private practice SLP in NYC who also has associate-level training through the Orton-Gillingham Academy. In this episode, Elizabeth shares why you should target reading during your speech therapy sessions and how you can feel more confident in this area.

As Speech Language Pathologists we love when we can use a book series with our students during our speech therapy sessions. Book series are typically written with the same theme in mind and structured the same way while also encompassing a variety of speech sounds and key concepts. Therefore, it’s no surprise that we love using Kate Messner’s Over and Under book series. In this episode, we’re sharing why we love this series, a description of each book, and how we’d use it in speech therapy.

Kids are excited and eager to try new things, but they can also have an internal struggle of feeling scared, nervous, or anxious about their new experiences. Summer often brings these new experiences for kids, so it’s helpful for them to read books about characters going through the same things. Jabari Jumps is the perfect book for this because it’s a fun and relatable summer-themed book that also teaches kids lessons. In today’s episode, we’re doing a deep dive into using Jabari Jumps and showing how to use it during your speech therapy sessions.

What’s one thing kids love to have as a nice, sweet, cool treat in the summer? Ice cream! When it’s hot outside, and kids have been playing or at the pool all day, it’s refreshing to have a scoop of ice cream to top off their day. So why not bring that same excited feeling into your speech therapy session? By incorporating ice cream theme books, you can help get students excited about summer break while working on their speech and language goals. In this episode, we’re doing a this or that episode using an ice cream theme with The Little Ice Cream Truck and Paletero Man.

When we find a book series we like, we consume all of the books they have to offer and find ways to incorporate them into our speech therapy sessions. One book series that’s gaining popularity and we’re enjoying right now is the Mother Bruce book series. There are 9 books in total, with 3 Little Bruce books as well. Just a heads up that we’re not discussing all of the books in the series because we believe that 4 are better to be read at home or for a fun read-aloud in the classroom. With the books we are discussing, we’re going to dive further into the Mother Bruce book series, how you can use them during speech therapy, and which key concepts to target the most.

So, it’s part of our goal to make sure we’re providing you with the right tools and books to best serve your students in speech therapy.

So, in today’s episode, we’re sharing our top early intervention and preschool books to engage your students with during speech therapy.

We do a lot of episodes showing why we choose different books to use during our speech therapy sessions. One of the criteria on which we base a good book is its level of vocabulary enrichment. Multiple studies have shown that vocabulary is the number one factor for reading comprehension and a predictor of academic success and intellectual ability. In other words, building and growing a student’s vocabulary is extremely important. So, in today’s episode, we’re sharing a list of books that target vocabulary that you can use with students during your sessions.

When we do any deep dive or this or that episode and talk about the key teaching points of books, one of the main components we look for is a rich vocabulary. But why is that an important aspect to cover with a text, and how does it relate to a student’s oral language development? Vocabulary is the single best indicator of intellectual ability and the number one factor in comprehension. It’s also a predictor of success at school, which makes it extremely important! In today’s episode, we’re discussing how to select rich vocabulary for your speech therapy sessions, which includes research and effective practices.

We talk a lot in these podcast episodes about books and the value they have when you use them in a literacy-based speech therapy session. One topic we mention is that just because a book is popular amongst kids, parents, or Amazon doesn’t mean it’s best to use it with your students to work on specific speech and language goals. A popular series that many teachers like to read is the Little Blue Truck series, but do all the books meet the requirements? In today’s episode, we’re doing a special this or that episode using the Little Blue Truck series in speech therapy.
