New Title
Targeting Language Delays: IEP Goals & Activities for Students with Developmental Challenges
Caroline Lee
Many school-aged children with developmental and communication challenges need help with their listening, language, and reading skills. Targeting Language Delays explains how to teach these skills in sequential steps using more than 100 goals and activities that can be incorporated into an IEP or used for home practice.

Part 1 offers background and tips on teaching language skills. Part 2 contains goals in key language areas:
  • following directions
  • negative "no" & "not"
  • "yes" & "no"
  • nouns
  • vocabulary (nouns & verbs)
  • classification and categorization
  • descriptors (including "same" & "different")
  • concepts
  • "wh" questions
  • listening skills (discrimination, memory & processing)
  • word & sentence structure
  • whole word reading

Archiving Project
Our archiving project continues on a weekly basis in the office. We would like to have a duplicate set of our calendars for the archive.

Are there any copies of DS NSW Calendars from the following years; 2000, 2003, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011? Any extra copies hiding in members' homes from these years would be greatly appreciated.
