VI Students - Speech-language evaluation process

Hello fellow SLPs,

Kenzie and I are both testing a student this year who is visually impaired/blind. We were able to Zoom with Pamela Thomas to help brainstorm and give us suggestions on how to test a student with visual impairments. She was so sweet and reached out to an SLP at the Texas School For the Blind & Visually Impaired. I thought I would share the information she received in case anyone needs it in the future! It is also uploaded in the drive. See the link below. The SLP at the Texas School For the Blind & Visually Impaired provided her contact information as well in case anyone would like to reach out to her directly. Please feel free to e-mail me if you would like her contact info.

Special shout out to Rivka as well for helping Kenzie and I brainstorm and giving us some great ideas!

Informed SLP Grammar Guide

Hey everyone!  The Informed SLP just released a free resource on their blog to help SLPs with targeting grammar forms in the therapy.  They've compiled a spreadsheet called "Grammatical Concepts of English: Suggested Order of Intervention." I've copied the link for the blog post below, and you can find the spreadsheet here . The Informed SLP Blog post:  https://www.theinformedslp.com/how-to/grammar-chart They do explain in the blog post that there are " no systematic studies have yet been completed that show which order of intervention is most effective." Even though this is the case, they've used the research that is available to try to describe logical sequences for targets. They  describe  how the information in the spreadsheet is organized  in the bl og post .  It looked like it could be helpful, so I thought it was worth sharing! -Janie

MSB Goals

Hey everyone! As I have been progress monitoring my students' goals, I noticed that sometimes the goals in MSB do not match the goals on their progress reports in esped. I was under the impression that MSB updated every day and would pull in esped goals. I'm not sure where some of the goals I've been submitting data for came from, because according to esped, my students don't have those things as goals. I hope that makes sense. Has this happened to anyone else?  Help! Lori
