Children with DLD can be good at socialising! They might just need a bit of extra support with relationships. Read the study summary here:https://www.engage-dld.com/post/how-do-children-with-language-disorder-perceive-peer-interactions Article: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... #DevLangDis

America needs to realize how seriously Canada takes Trump's #51stState threat & stop listening to right-wing media about some nonexisting groundswell of Canadians clamouring to give up our health care and way of life. (It's worth it to watch till the end.) youtu.be/z3rIlAITjXk?...

I have a 30-minute skills block which includes daily spelling, vocabulary, morphology, and reading fluency work. I try to keep initial instruction of vocabulary and spelling quick and simple. Ss use mwb for answering. I teach 3 words at a time using consistent routines.

Thank you @bronwynhemsley.bsky.social and team…We now need to a) continue to spread the word to SLT/Ps and parents, b) encourage robust empirical research into GLP/NLA efficacy (ethics might be tricky?). I’m an SSD specialist yet still get more enquiries about GLP/NLA than anything else 🤷🏼‍♀️

Low awareness of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) means that many children are struggling in school without knowing why. Their teachers don't why either and don't know what strategies could help them. We have produced information on signs of DLD and supportive strategies for teachers & parents

When you’re chasing a dream or doing anything hard, you’re meant to feel good a third of the time, OK a third of the time, and crappy a third of a time. And if the ratio is roughly in that range, then you’re doing fine. youtu.be/gIi9IOdxt20
