Welcome to another episode of the SLP Now podcast! In the last couple episodes, we've been exploring literacy-based therapy plans that will help you target your students’ goals across multiple ages, group sizes, and skill levels. We covered therapy planning for an early language unit in episode 183, plans for a picture book unit in episode 184, and today we’re going to dig into the third part of this six week series with a fiction article: Miss Johnson’s Plant Experiment. This unit is specifically designed for older students who still benefit from narrative support, but are capable of reading longer and more complex texts. There is a lot of research showing us that targeting narratives through high school has a positive impact on learning, and so many activities we can use to embed those skills. In the episode, we discuss Dr. Ukrainetz’s five step literacy-based therapy framework, using it to target goals like: ArticulationGrammar and syntaxAnswering questionsVocabulary targetsDescribing activities …and more! All of the activities in this unit are language rich, and they provide the perfect context to target almost any goal in your speech therapy sessions—even if you’re targeting multiple goals with mixed groups. Let’s get this therapy planning party started! SHOW NOTES Full show notes at slpnow.com/185
