Early, and Earliest, Intervention with Preschoolers • Sam Rosener, M.S., CCC-SLP • Speech-Language Pathologist
Digital Nativism • Preschoolers, and younger children, are growing up as digital natives. • Even I have a hard time keeping up with the technology that they inherently get. • Give a 2 year old an iPad and they instantly know how to make it work.
With their native understanding of technology, we, as teachers and interventionists, need to become fluent in understanding the technology that they want to use.
I started using an iPad in my therapy and teaching about a year ago. • Now I do about 80% of my therapy, and all of my articulation therapy, on the iPad.
Lets look at some apps that I use on a daily basis. • Most are free or super cheap!
Escondido Unified has an amazing iPod Touch/iPad program, and a frequently updated list of free apps. • https://sites.google.com/a/eusd.org/eusd-iread/ipod-apps
