Organizing Language Therapy: Fun Narrative Instruction
Course Description
Language therapy is typically abstract, tough to plan for, and difficult to document improvement. In this course, you’ll learn a language therapy SYSTEM, if you will, that will save organization and planning time, establish therapy continuity from therapy session to therapy session, and improve your stress level and sanity. You’ll also learn the Keys to Language Therapy Instruction (research-based strategies you’ll want to include in your therapy sessions to help your kids learn and retail), and, the “INSTIL” Program (a therapy acronym) that outlines a new Narrative Therapy Method that’s not only fun for your kids, but effective, and assists in the transfer of knowledge outside your therapy room. We’ll cover how to successfully use stories, poems, and readers theater.
