Target Audience: Teacher and SLP Teams of student(s) with communication needs are recommended.

Everyday experiences are opportunities to develop literacy skills and concepts. Building literacy around personal experiences supports students to make connections in a meaningful way.   This hybrid Professional Development is meant to increase engagement of students with complex learning needs through the use of literacy extensions. During this session participants will create their own experience books and bags.  Participants will plan for and develop implementation for their own students.  Participants will be able to earn between 3 – 4 hours of PD based on pre and post live session work.  Upon registration more information will be sent.  SLP CEU’s and EILA will be applied for.
