53. Dialogic Reading Strategies Every SLP Needs: How to Boost Literacy & Engagement


Listen Later

Print is becoming a bigger part of how we communicate—and as SLPs, we must be ready to support children’s literacy skills effectively. In this episode, I break down Dialogic Reading and the CROWD prompts (Completion, Recall, Open-Ended, WH-Questions, Distancing). You’ll learn how to move beyond constant questioning, embed prompts naturally, and use multimodal supports to keep every child engaged—especially those with developmental language delays.

The goal? Empowering children to become the storytellers.
