Learn how to evaluate the effectiveness of your therapy activities to 1) account for individual difference and 2) increase therapy outcomes.

Cultural differences, language influence, and socio-economic issues can impact how successful we are in therapy. However, you can alter existing therapy materials and goals in order to take cultural differences and classroom needs into account.

Strategies for literacy-based intervention and increased vocabulary are presented along with downloadable therapy materials. Therapy goals that are applicable to Spanish and English speakers are given for the early childhood, young school-age, and school-age populations.

  • List 3 cultural and socio-economic issues that can affect therapeutic outcomes
