Achieving goals with challenging students somemes requires a new approach to therapy. Keli Richmond, MS, CCC-SLP, works in the Texas school systems teaching in- services, providing therapy, and promong literacy skills for preschool through middle school students. Keli also presents on the topic of literacy development to SLPs and other educators around the United States at in-services, seminars and state and naonal convenons. She is author of the Literacy Speaks!® program. Literacy Speaks!® introduces orthographic instrucon (printed cues) in a comprehensive program that improves speech intelligibility and language skills while promong a strong literacy foundaon. Keli is a past recipient of the Indiana Speech-Language- Hearing Associaon’s Professional Achievement Award, which recognizes outstanding professional development. She was a founding member of the United Way Women’s Iniave, an organizaon dedicated to closing educaonal gaps through early literacy development. For more informaon on Keli Richmond visit www.LiteracySpeaks.com. Children can be dismissed from speech therapy with improved arculaon skills and word intelligibility but sll demonstrate high risk for school failure because of unremediated deficits in leer- sound associaon and/or poor oral and wrien language skills. This treatment-focused seminar brings together two unique intervenon approaches that can put struggling students on a fast track to classroom success. The intervenons presented can be used with many student groups including speech delay, ausm, apraxia of speech, and students learning English. Building Foundational Literacy Skills The morning session begins with a discussion of the brain’s four processors. Research on early literacy development suggests that targeng the orthographic processor first, rather than the phonological processor, may be a more effecve approach to teaching leer-sound correlaon and literacy skills. Parcipants will learn orthographic instrucon (printed cues) and how “starng with the leer” can suddenly bring sounds and words to life for children. This highly successful approach can help students achieve speech and language goals while at the same me building a strong literacy foundaon. Expanding Oral & Written Expression Frustrated with receiving one-word answers or blank looks from students when it comes to describing vocabulary or describing an object or event? The aſternoon session will explain how the brain funcons in expanding oral and wrien expression. Based on this knowledge, introduced will be a mul-sensory instrucon approach to target those students who struggle with organizing and expanding their thoughts. Specific areas addressed will be oral expression, wring from prior knowledge, vocabulary comprehension, defining & describing skills, similaries & differences, categorizaon, and more. The ulmate goal of this seminar is to help parcipants achieve more therapy goals and in less me. SEMINAR DESCRIPTION Is targeting the brain’s phonological processor always the best place to begin in therapy? No more one word answers when students are asked to describe objects and vocabulary!
