Do you use wordless videos for pragmatic/language treatment and wonder where you can find the proof of its efficacy? Check out this article: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40489-016-0098-5
P.S. If you're looking for EBP Google Scholar is an excellent resource. Happy treatment planning!
Language Activities for High Schoolers?
Anonymous
I am a new SLP about to work at a high school for the first time. Can someone offer different kinds of language activities for this population? Anything helps! Thank you
LITTLE ROCK, Ark.– Two speech-language pathologists are providing speech therapy on wheels.
The Chatterbus travels to different areas and catches the eye of school-aged children with its monkey bars, tent, swing, crafts and more, all used to give speech therapy. Suzanne Howard’s sons came home from school one day, and she knew she had to learn more.
“My sons came home and talked about the fun little things they did on the Chatterbus — they didn’t even talk about school that day,” Howard said.

Happy belated Juneteenth! For those who aren't familiar with the holiday, Juneteenth is otherwise known as the "Black Independence Day," when slaves in Texas learned about their freedom TWO YEARS after President Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation.
For those who are interested in discussing this topic in pediatric speech therapy, I included a mini book with Wh- questions to get you started! You can download it for FREE here: tinyurl.com/juneteenthminibook. Be sure to share with your SLP friends!
