May 8, 2018: The Relationship Between Speech Sound Disorders and Learning to Read: The Role of the Speech/Language Pathologist in the Prevention of Reading Difficulties
Presented by Casey O'Keefe, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Children who have an early history of speech sound disorders often exhibit problems when learning to read after their expressive phonological deficits have been remediated and they have been dismissed from speech. This seminar will describe the relationship between speech sound disorders and reading difficulties and the role of the SLP in collaborating with other professions to support students who are “at-risk” for reading problems.
Objectives:
1. Understand speech/language characteristics of children who are at-risk for later reading problems.
2. Explore potential interprofessional practices to support children who are at-risk for reading problems.
