Webinar, March 6th, 2021, with the Mass Down Syndrome Congress and the 321 Foundation of Burlington, MA. Speech services are often an essential component of the educational program of students, but with social distancing a norm these days, how are can we develop important speech skills in a hybrid/online classroom environment?
* This workshop will provide an overview of social pragmatics and explain why these skills are critical for an inclusive educational experience.
* Consider the challenges our children face in our new socially distant norm and leave you with some ideas both in and out of the classroom to foster and build communication.
