Julie Barber-Bristol, MS, CCC-SLP, presents strategies for creating engaging classroom-based speech and language lessons that support communication development within early childhood settings. This course helps SLPs confidently plan and deliver whole-group instruction that integrates speech and language goals into everyday classroom activities.

You will explore evidence-based approaches for building vocabulary, supporting early literacy, and strengthening social communication skills within inclusive classroom environments.
The course also addresses ways to differentiate instruction within whole-group lessons and collaborate effectively with teachers and support staff. You will leave with lesson frameworks, activity ideas, and practical strategies that can reduce planning time, increase student engagement, and expand your impact within the early childhood classroom.
