I’ve been a little discouraged this week. So this treat left on my desk, that was dropped off at my school before student arrival by my SLP bestie, really brightened my day. Community and connection matter. @RISDSLPs#RISDDreamBig
How fun is this holiday card I received from the JHE SLPs??? They definitely rock and I hope they too have a ROCKIN’ holiday season! @RISDSLPs#RISDDreamBig
So proud of our incredible SLPs who led today’s round-table trainings! Each 30-minute session was packed with practical ideas, collaboration, and inspiration. Peer-led PD is powerful when it’s by SLPs, for SLPs. #risddreambig#SLPGreatness
JHE is getting in the spirit of spooky season! We describe, follow directions, take turns, and even give compliments to friends! Learning is so fun with friends by your side!
#risddreambig#RISDslp
NLE has been getting in the Halloween spirit too! Using CORE words to request help and more! Describing feelings! & lots of turn taking! #risddreambig
Our very own @mrsashleyslp just won RISD’s SSS department’s very first EPIC Award! She is the epitome of what it means to be on a team both at @JessHarbenElem and as an RISD SLP. Her work with her centralized classrooms on incorporating CORE and AAC is EPIC!
So much magic happens around this little table. It's a place for teaching, practicing, learning, and overall growth. Happy to have this space and even happier to share it with the people I do. ✨ #GratitudeIsPowerful#risddreambig@RISDSLPs@RichardsonISD
🍪🗣️CORE + Cookies with our DLC team at @JessHarbenElem! We are dreaming up ways to use CORE vocabulary to help students communicate. Can't wait to collaborate and learn with this crew! #risddreambig#dreamteam@RISDSLPs@SSSRISD
We may not be at the same school but we plan to collab to make a difference for students. So we still consider ourselves a dynamic duo of speech. And we have the friendship bracelets to prove it! #RISDDreamBig@RISDSLPs
After reading Big Shark Little Shark in speech therapy, these PK3 Wallace Wolves made ocean snacks. Lots of following directions, requesting, and practicing the /k/ and /f/ sounds in sentences. They said they loved it! @RISDSLPs#RISDBeTheOne
Walking into the Wallace PK Build class to see this amazing Central Program Assistant providing aided language modeling on the Core Board as the teacher taught morning circle made my SLP heart happy! #RISDBeTheOne@RISDSLPs
RISD SLPs work with teachers, CPAs, and PBS staff to implement a Systems First Approach where students receive Tier 3 communication supports at a Tier 1 level. Thanks to Tina and Corrine from AT for the training today!!! @RISDSLPs#RISDBeTheOne
@RichardsonISD, we don’t want anyone to miss this opportunity! We have Jenny McGlothlin, SLP specializing in pediatric feeding, coming to present on working with picky eaters! Two one hour sessions - one for staff and one for parents! Please register at the link in the flyers.
RISD SLPs create and teach curriculum aligned large group lessons with communication supports in PK Rise & Build classrooms. Blast Off to Space from the STAR Program used in PK Build classes is one of my favorites! @RISDSLPs#BeTheOne
