Buzzing about Speech & Language
I don’t know about you, but I ready for some R & R this summer! Between weddings, showers, babies being born, and planning for next year, I’m hoping to squeeze in a beach trip or 2. The beach is one of my favorite parts of summer! I try to go at least once or twice every year. 🙂 In light… Read More

I usually plan at least 5 a year, and of course all around the same time. I actually have 3 scheduled for this May. What can I say? All… Read More
I am so very excited to show you this next project. It has been a work-in-progress for several months now. It’s such a great feeling to finally be finished! In my state RtI is a mandatory component of the evaluation process. We must have documented interventions in all areas of communication (articulation, language, voice, fluency). It has to be included… Read More
In today’s FAQ Friday post, I’m hoping to give you a couple of easy ideas and a few research links that could help my fellow SLP and teacher friends. It’s that time of year! Summertime is just around the corner. State testing is over. It didn’t help that there was a full moon last night. The kids are getting antsy!… Read More
It’s a beautiful day here in South Louisiana! A little on the warm side, but clear and sunny and cheerful. Spring is definitely here. The grass is greener, and flowers and trees are starting to bud.
