Enhancing Phonological Awareness: Practical Insights for Practitioners
In the field of speech-language pathology, phonological awareness is a critical skill that underpins successful reading and writing. "Working Out with Phonological Awareness," a resource reviewed by Linda R. Schreiber and colleagues, provides valuable insights into enhancing these skills through structured activities. This blog post will summarize the key findings from this resource and offer practical tips for practitioners aiming to improve their phonological awareness interventions.
