The very best CHRISTmas gift …. A letter!

He is ten years old, and 8 months ago he was writing some single sounds and a few CVC words. Today he came to therapy excited because he had “wrote me a gift!”

I am so abundantly blessed to receive such a treasure.

First time ceramic painting for this guy ….. so much fun to learn something new and make a treasure for Thanksgiving!

Even when a student has a significant fine motor delay, there is great joy and a huge sense of accomplishment painting all by yourself. He made it for his MOM, which made it mean so much more!

I was given the honor of having a UAMS graduate speech-language pathology student this past semester, Chandler Webb. It was such joy to mentor, teach, observe, and help her as much as possible as she traveled through me for a short time. Chandler was easy going, incredibly flexible, kind hearted, wonderful to have around, and the kids adored her! GODspeed to your last semester of graduate school, graduation, and your first job. Just remember Chandler, when GOD opens doors, all you have to do is ACT!

Great opportunity to learn more about DLD …..

10/17/2025

Research validates that children/students with DLD can and do catch up ………… it just takes them longer! HOWEVER they must be provided with the appropriate evidence based multi-sensory instruction that explicitly teaches them language, reading, comprehension, written expression, and writing.

At The Reading League, we recognize Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) Day as an important reminder of the need to support students whose language challenges often go unnoticed.

Children with DLD are at increased risk of experiencing reading difficulties, including dyslexia. Yet research shows students with DLD and dyslexia can thrive when educators recognize these needs early and deliver evidence-aligned instruction.

When we connect research to practice, we give students with DLD, dyslexia, and other learning differences the support to thrive.

1 in 5 …..

What causes dyslexia?
Although the exact causes of dyslexia are still not completely clear, anatomical and brain imagery studies show differences in the way the brain of a person with dyslexia develops and functions. Additionally, most people with dyslexia have been found to have problems with identifying the separate speech sounds within a word and/or learning how letters represent those sounds, a key factor in their reading difficulties. Dyslexia is not due to a lack of intelligence or desire to learn. Students with dyslexia can learn successfully with appropriate teaching methods.

I offer academic testing when I do speech language testing ….. WOWza, so much goes into a comprehensive speech-language academic assessment! These protocols represent 5 hours of testing, now several hours of scoring and analyzing them, onto writing a report that will take me 4-6 hours, so I can meet with the family, and possibly the school.

I truly love all parts of the evaluation process EXCEPT writing the report! My written expression is my biggest deficit and my worst enemy, however, it gives me an opportunity to serve families, so “I keep swimming!”

The evaluation is critical …….

In schools and private practices across the country, families of struggling students are told, “Get an evaluation,” as if simply identifying a diagnosis is the solution. But what happens when the evaluation is conducted by the wrong person, someone who either lacks deep expertise in language dev...
