1. Speech Therapy for IEPS
What is an IEP?
An Individualized Educational Plan is an outline of educational/special services goals
and objectives. It’s intended to facilitate the learning process of a child in education.
An IEP is frequently beneficial for those individuals with speech or language
disorders, as well as learning disabilities.
How Speech Therapy Can Help With IEPS
Speech therapist s and speech language pathologists (aka SLPs) are
commonly included in IEPS.
They generally have at least a Master’s degree, as well as a state license and
/or a certification from the Department of Education.
They can help children with disabilities or communication disorders whose
impaired language skills affect their ability to participate in the classroom
environment. Examples include working to improve slow development of
vocabulary or grammar.
They also do work on voice disorders, addressing abnormal speech patterns
(monotonous, too loud, soft, nasal etc.) An SLP will often spend some time
one-on-one with the child for personal attention and learning.
