When working with children with speech or language disorders, the teacher's use of language is not important because the children will be working closely with a Speech and Language Pathologist for supports.
This statement is not accurate. The teacher's use of language is important when working with children with speech or language disorders. Teachers play a crucial role in helping to support and facilitate communication skills in the classroom. They can provide additional opportunities for practice and reinforcement of speech and language goals, as well as create a supportive and inclusive environment for children with communication difficulties. Additionally, teachers often collaborate with Speech and Language Pathologists to implement interventions and strategies that support students' language development. Therefore, the teacher's use of language and communication strategies is essential in supporting children with speech and language disorders in the educational setting.
