Huge congratulations to Kristin Sessa for being named Lake Highlands Elementary Teacher of the Month for February! 🍎✨

I’ve been a little discouraged this week. So this treat left on my desk, that was dropped off at my school before student arrival by my SLP bestie, really brightened my day. Community and connection matter. @RISDSLPs #RISDDreamBig

Favorite holiday shirt day keeps getting better! Even though she’s at another school one of my fave @RISDSLPs @brooke_slp and I are twinning! #RISDDreamBig #LittleRamsLittleWildcats #JHE

With part of the PK Rise Team sporting our favorite holidays sweaters! Blizzard of Fun Dress Up Days have been a great way to connect at #LittleRamsLittleWildcats #RISDDreamBig @RISDSLPs

How fun is this holiday card I received from the JHE SLPs??? They definitely rock and I hope they too have a ROCKIN’ holiday season! @RISDSLPs #RISDDreamBig

So proud of our incredible SLPs who led today’s round-table trainings! Each 30-minute session was packed with practical ideas, collaboration, and inspiration. Peer-led PD is powerful when it’s by SLPs, for SLPs. #risddreambig #SLPGreatness

Most days, this SLP can't just wave a magic wand and correct that R sound.... But today is not one of those days. 😜🪄 #speechtherapyismagic #risddreambig #bibbitybobbityboo @RichardsonISD @RISDSLPs @JessHarbenElem

JHE is getting in the spirit of spooky season! We describe, follow directions, take turns, and even give compliments to friends! Learning is so fun with friends by your side! #risddreambig #RISDslp

NLE has been getting in the Halloween spirit too! Using CORE words to request help and more! Describing feelings! & lots of turn taking! #risddreambig

Our very own @mrsashleyslp just won RISD’s SSS department’s very first EPIC Award! She is the epitome of what it means to be on a team both at @JessHarbenElem and as an RISD SLP. Her work with her centralized classrooms on incorporating CORE and AAC is EPIC!

A great day of double SLP learning from beginning to end…PreK through Secondary. #risddreambig

Courtney, you do so much to make the magic happen! Happy to have you here!

🍪🗣️CORE + Cookies with our DLC team at @JessHarbenElem! We are dreaming up ways to use CORE vocabulary to help students communicate. Can't wait to collaborate and learn with this crew! #risddreambig #dreamteam @RISDSLPs @SSSRISD

JHE is so lucky to have you both!

We may not be at the same school but we plan to collab to make a difference for students. So we still consider ourselves a dynamic duo of speech. And we have the friendship bracelets to prove it! #RISDDreamBig @RISDSLPs

After reading Big Shark Little Shark in speech therapy, these PK3 Wallace Wolves made ocean snacks. Lots of following directions, requesting, and practicing the /k/ and /f/ sounds in sentences. They said they loved it! @RISDSLPs #RISDBeTheOne

Walking into the Wallace PK Build class to see this amazing Central Program Assistant providing aided language modeling on the Core Board as the teacher taught morning circle made my SLP heart happy! #RISDBeTheOne @RISDSLPs

RISD SLPs work with teachers, CPAs, and PBS staff to implement a Systems First Approach where students receive Tier 3 communication supports at a Tier 1 level. Thanks to Tina and Corrine from AT for the training today!!! @RISDSLPs #RISDBeTheOne

@RichardsonISD, we don’t want anyone to miss this opportunity! We have Jenny McGlothlin, SLP specializing in pediatric feeding, coming to present on working with picky eaters! Two one hour sessions - one for staff and one for parents! Please register at the link in the flyers.

RISD SLPs create and teach curriculum aligned large group lessons with communication supports in PK Rise & Build classrooms. Blast Off to Space from the STAR Program used in PK Build classes is one of my favorites! @RISDSLPs #BeTheOne
