Integrating language learning, disorders, and literacy together in a coherent and cohesive narrative, it covers the challenges facing school-age students from early elementary levels through high school. Using past and current research from speech-language pathology (SLP) and reading and literacy arenas, the authors present transcripts, cases, and detailed intervention sessions to provide a template for daily practice. The text provides some answers to one of the most complex, yet basic, questions: “Why am I doing this?” \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe text has four major goals: (1) to encourage readers to evaluate past and current clinical and educational practices in language intervention at school-age levels; (2) to present intervention goals and activities that are theoretically-sound but may require further research scrutiny; (3) to explore aspects of curriculum-relevant language intervention for students with language learning disabilities; (4) to provide guidelines for school-based practitioners that clarify how professionals with diverse backgrounds and roles share responsibility in language, literacy, and academic programming. With its strong focus on language and language disorders, this text serves as a valuable resource for teachers and other specialists who collaborate with school-based speech-language pathologists (SLPs) to support students with language learning disabilities (LLD).\u003c\/p\u003eNew to the Second Edition\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA new chapter, “Application Activities to Stretch Your Knowledge,” includes problems with possible answers and rationales that review significant concepts in language and literacy with a focus on adolescents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA road map to scenarios and reports and key information at the beginning of the text \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplication activities in Chapter 10 with icons that highlight easy access to key information and connections with understanding the “Whys”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eKey Features\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuestions at the beginning of each chapter that reflect concerns of SLPs and their teams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProjects and assignments that supplement and review the material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExamples of teaching modules with practical lesson plans that integrate the role of SLPs in Interprofessional Practices (IPP) while explicitly addressing the curriculum across a variety of subject areas \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58841220678006,"sku":"9781635507300","price":158.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_35072287.jpg?v=1790655792","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781635507300-language-and-literacy-connections","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
