Keeping Summer Speech Practice Simple with Jen Leroux, M.A., CCC/SLP
In this episode Jen Leroux, M.A., CCC/SLP, school based speech-language pathologist, joins Lacy to talk about how to support school aged kids over the summer with their speech and language skills. Jen has 12 years of experience supporting families in helping their kids over the summer months and it doesn't involve worksheets! Jen gives practical tips and strategies on how to approach families about practice over the summer and what might work best for them. She shares ideas on how to implement skills into daily routines and family vacations. She suggests simple activities to support practice and discusses how book reading can support speech and language skill practice also. We talk about how to best collaborate with private speech-language pathologists and how for some kids and families, taking a break might be the best recommendation. This is great episode for parents looking for ways to support their kids over the summer months and for professionals to learn new, creative, practical ways to support families! To access Jen's materials look for "Simplified Speech" on Teachers Pay Teachers and Boom Learning. You can also find Jen on Instagram @simplified_speechie.
