The significance of the complementary relationship between language and literacy is undisputed. It follows then, that text is the ultimate tool for the speech and hearing professional to add to his or her repertoire. This workshop will provide practical ideas for incorporating books and other literacy artifacts into the one-on-one therapy session, both for young children and for those of school age.
