Supplementing Language Therapy

Abstract
In order to provide the best treatment for the language-handicapped child, the school speech-language pathologist and the classroom teacher must work together as members of the educational team. While teachers often ask what they might do to help a child with a language disorder in the classroom, the nature of the setting makes this a particularly challenging task. This article provides specific ideas and activities that the speech-language pathologist might suggest to the classroom teacher in dealing with the language-handicapped child. Suggestions include ways of improving the linguistic interaction between teacher and child, as well as specific activities that may be used in the classroom to facilitate language learning.
