Each year students in Kindergarten are screened for potential speech and language problems. The
specialist looks for problems with articulation, dysfluency, voice,
language concepts, auditory discrimination, syntax (grammar), and
social communication skills. Any child new to the school and any child referred by a teacher or parent is also screened and/or assessed. Every
child in the program is given a yearly battery of tests to rule out
other problems and to determine progress toward goals on the Individual
Education Program (IEP). Children receive instruction in small groups for 20-30 minutes once or twice a week. Collaboration and consultation between classroom teacher and the Speech teacher is integral to services provided. > View...
