Literacy based intervention is an evidence-based practice in speech-language pathology, and books are an integral part of my work with all my students. In trying to individualize my work with kids it is imperative to have a wide variety of choices in order to engage their wide variety of interests. In trying to build my library, I focused on choosing books with characters and settings that reflect, celebrate, and teach about the differences that are part of my students' lives. Additionally, I have selected books that I can use to teach social-emotional strategies, another critical skill for my students. Kids need to see characters in books that look like them! I have selected texts that can be a model, a context, and a source of inspiration for language intervention lesson plans. I create a variety of visual aids and supports related to each book to enrich their learning, and having an accessible laminator and velcro is critical in my work.
