Hottest CSD Topics
O The ASHA Leader, March 15, 2011
How to Fit RtI into a Heavy Workload
O The ASHA Leader, August 30, 2011
Great Ideas
O Group Discussion
Generate at least 3 “great ideas” to report out…(i.e. service delivery,
data collection, scheduling, team process, intervention,
organizational or time-saving tips, etc.)
-Scheduling (block schedule arranged in June with principalgrade levels not in specials during a block of time. Service deliveryReading Street- pull out. Vs. push-in…teacher/principal influence).
Start small- K scheduling success)
- Targeting vocabulary-6 minute solution, students unable to read
words they don’t know. Vocab exercises targeting specific words.
- -Reading Street- vocabulary targeted during intervention
- -Increasing active engagement-students graphing progress on
graphs in speech folders. Where am I now..want to be next month…

Defining our PLC journey: 2011-12
What are you hoping
to gain from this year’s PLCs?
Progress Monitoring Tool for Listening
Comprehension and Oral Expression
O Wendy Robinson, Assistant Director of Professional
Development, Heartland AEA 11, “Response to
Intervention for Curriculum-Based Language
Concerns”
O Rationale for curriculum based evaluation (Language)
O Assessment should include language beyond the
sentence level
O Assessment should focus on what to teach and how
to teach to improve academic outcomes for students
O Assessment should link to successful strategies or
teaching recommendations
O Assessment should be as close to student’s
age/grade and current curriculum level as possible
Why is it important
O Oral language skills are the foundation of literacy
skills. The competency of a student’s language skills
typically determine the competency of a student’s
reading and writing skills…Wendy Robinson
O The attainment of literacy skills is critical for academic
and life success
O 60-70% of preschool children with communication
concerns are at-risk for literacy failure by grade two
O Language and communication skills are considered
the “hidden curriculum” in most schools (the common
core has speaking and listening standards)
