EP 106 - Where to Find Digital Reading P...

Jessica Cassity, M.S., CCC-SLP
About this episode

In this episode, I discuss where to find digital reading passages, which can be a valuable addition to our speech therapy toolbox. If you're in school, reading passages allow you to align your therapy materials with the classroom curriculum, and they can also be a great way to engage with students' interests. You can also use digital reading passages to target almost any goal, especially with older students. Go here to access the show notes: https://bit.ly/TSSEP106
