2024/03/26

We do a lot of episodes showing why we choose different books to use during our speech therapy sessions. One of the criteria on which we base a good book is its level of vocabulary enrichment.

In other words, building and growing a student’s vocabulary is extremely important. So, in today’s episode, we’re sharing a list of books that target
