It can be a challenge to find materials that are both at a lower reading level and include age-appropriate language skills and concepts.

 

These materials are so important to find and use though because there is evidence that shows that when we work on age-appropriate language skills with our students, we can boost their reading.

 

If we bring in materials that are too challenging for them, too simple, or not age-appropriate, our students will have a hard time building their confidence and their skills.

 

To help you with this challenge, I am covering how to know what materials to bring in to help your students in this episode. I am then getting into how to use them once you have them.

 

This is another episode in a whole series that I am doing about working with older speech students. Each episode provides helpful tips, advice, and information that will save you tons of time and stress! Make sure to tune into them all!
