About this episode

Show Notes: https://slpnow.com/blog/231-5-evidence-backed-strategies-to-teach-past-tense-verbs/

In this episode of the SLP Now Podcast, Marisha breaks down five research-backed strategies you can use to help students master past tense verbs. Many of our students have goals in this area, and if progress feels slower than expected, these strategies can give you practical tools to try in your next session.

You’ll also hear why marking tense is such an important communication skill, not just for storytelling and effective communication but also as a reliable diagnostic indicator of language impairment (Guo & Schneider, 2016).

Whether you’re looking for new ideas, reminders of tried-and-true techniques, or support in boosting student progress, this episode has you covered.
