Why is it important?

While prevention is within the SLP's scope of practice, few SLPs are engaging in preventative practices with students in the upper elementary grades. This article illustrates how to implement a literacy program in collaboration with classroom teachers to prevent literacy failure.

Perspectives

I have been working collaboratively with classroom teachers to provide classroom-based services at Tiers I and II for several years, and it was a pleasure to share some of these experiences with others. I hope that it inspires school-based SLPs approach teachers about working collaboratively to prevent literacy failure.
