Catherine B. –
This resource has been very helpful as I integrate literacy targets more into my practice. It provides information about literacy development, as well as the development of underlying/associated skills such as narrative skills. It’s a practical resource that has suggestions for how to work on different skills for targeted literacy interventions (ex. effective ways to build vocabulary, reading comprehension strategies). There is some overlap with the Language Visuals & Graphic Organizers resource by the same author.
