Do you find it challenging

to communicate effectively with all of your students?

Hey Teacher or SLP,

As a certified Speech-Language Pathologist I understand how difficult it can be to translate a student's "huh?"s. This ebook will help you understand how different students communicate and give you concrete strategies to facilitate learning in the classroom. This manual also provides strategies for push-in SLP services!

Strategies for Successful Classroom Communication

This is a 75+ page ebook manual.

Practical · User Friendly · Comprehensive

With 10 years of clinical experience in and out of the classroom setting, this practical and user-friendly reference manual will become a mainstay throughout the school year. Numerous engaging scenarios taken from my own classroom experiences address how best to communicate with students who may have challenges with speech and language.

This manual does not tell you what you should do, it tells you how to do it.

For Example:

What you should do: "make sure your student understands the directions."

 

How to do it: "ask the student if the directions were too fast? too long? what parts did he remember? do they need an example (and more)"

SO PRACTICAL!

As a teacher who is often skeptical of new resources and even more cautious to give recommendations to my fellow colleagues with limited time, I give my whole-hearted approval of Strategies for Successful Classroom Communication! We’ve all been forced to study or even been excited to find new pedagogical books that turn out to feel too far removed from today's classroom or just plain boring, but Megan-Brette Hamilton writes with such life, intentionality, and joy making this an easy and enjoyable read. Throughout the book, I was continually thinking, “Where has this been all my life?” as I pondered past students who I, now, realize may have had undiagnosed speech disorders. I feel empowered to help my future students with the new understanding and accessible resources I gained here! I know this guide will live with me in my classroom for years to come.
