While students do work hard in speech therapy during the week, parent involvement is an important contributing factor in their progress. I have compiled a list of documents and websites that I think will be beneficial to parents and teachers -enjoy!
| Sound Development Chart |
| Sublime Speech -Parent Colleague Handouts for Developmental Norms of Elementary Students |
| The Difference Between Speech and Language |
| English Language Developmental Sound Chart |
| Specific Language Impairment |
In addition to the documents provided, I've also compiled a short list of resources. There are many more available online -happy researching!

APpS (for ipads and other tablets)
Technology plays a big role in speech-language therapy, and since so many students have access not only to the internet but to electronic devices such as iPads, tablets, smartphones, and computers I felt it necessary to compile a list of some apps that you and your child can use at home to work on speech and language.
