Well then, shimmy on over to this week’s episode, where Dr. Trina Spencer and Dr. Doug Peterson return to share some “friggin awesome” intervention-focused follow-up to their previous talks on MTSS and dynamic assessment (DA). If you’ve listened to this duo on prior episodes, you know they are dynamos, dedicated to natural and holistic language approaches that help students across the board. In this chapter,, Trina and Doug walk us through their 10 principles to multi-tiered language intervention, providing the simple but highly effective tools we need to foster oral, written, and academic language skills that really stick for our students. This one got me thinking, made me cringe a bit at my past practices, and inspired me to further harness the power of narrative to make big impacts on language proficiency for students at risk and those with known disabilities. As with any good SLP Nerdcast story, you’ll learn something, you’ll laugh, and you’ll meet a strange frog with shapeshifting powers. Well, maybe that last part isn’t like every Nerdcast story, but who doesn’t love a good plot twist in the series!You can learn more about Trina and Doug here.Summary Written by Tanna Neufeld, MS, CCC-SLP, Contributing EditorLearning OutcomesDescribe the characteristics of effective language instruction.
