Episode 64 - Aligning with the Curriculum
Episode 64 was inspired by a request from Kyla’s administration: align your therapy with the curriculum.

In this episode, the SLPs share practical strategies for connecting your therapy to what’s happening in the classroom by focusing on the underlying, foundational language skills (and good news: you are already doing a lot of this!).⭐️ Help us grow by subscribing and rating our podcast on any platform (don't forget to leave a 5 ⭐️ review)❤️ Support our podcast🛍️ Shop our merch
