As a school based speech-language pathologist, I work with students in preschool - 5th grade with various disabilities (e.g. Developmental Delays, Intellectual Disabilities, Specific Learning Disabilities, Speech Language Impairment, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Other Health Impairment). In speech-language therapy, I address articulation, receptive-expressive language, and fluency skills. Each student has an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) that includes specific speech-language goals to address communication skills. Currently, I use my personal iPad to work with the students, which makes it difficult when the group size includes 3-5 students. The iPads will be used to facilitate the students' growth in the areas of vocabulary, listening comprehension, answering "wh" questions, following directions, sequencing, categorization, and verbal output (e.g. Alternative Augmentative Communication device). Also, the iPads will be used to increase different ways of learning with games, activities, and interactive stories that focus on speech and language growth to meet the various needs of each student on my caseload.
