I am a proponent for Literacy in therapy. I find even with older children, they lack the necessary prosody skills for good, intelligible speech. I have begun to ask students about learned nursery rhymes and am now including them in therapy. Now, I have the research to support my therapy plans, especially those with special needs. I agree that these children are not getting the literacy component in additional to learning functional skills.

A home environment that includes literacy related interactions increases oral language development and later academic successStudents with special needs especially complex needs have decreased literacy-related interactions and opportunities

Good overview of incorporating literacy into EI. The examples activities were helpful but didn't seem overly relevant to EI with birth-3 children, especially with parent coaching. More examples of naturally embedding literacy into daily routines and coaching parents on those would have been helpful. Overall, it was a good review of literacy in EI.
