Description
Speech- Language Pathologist’s (SLP) are educated and trained in the areas of prevention, identification of communication disorders and delays, assessment, intervention, and consultation with other education professionals (Ehren, 2007). Their role in the schools lies parallel to the outline of response to intervention (RTI), a program designed to address educational challenges before they become failures and have lasting impacts on a student’s education (Ehren & Whitmire, 2009). RTI can aid in addressing challenges in academic content areas as well as specific speech and/or language concerns prior a student’s qualification for special education services or their failure of understanding a crucial content area (Sanger et al., 2012). This poster will highlight the overlap between the RTI framework and the role of the SLP to aid in success for elementary aged students.
