My son is sitting on my lap while I work.
Him: "Mom, what's that say?" Me: "Informed"

Him: ".... The Informed SLOP. Why are you reading about slop? SLLLLOP. Pig slop." Me: "Dude, that's S-L-P." 😂😜

When students reach the upper-elementary years (4th and 5th grades, or ages 9–11), the curricular demands for reading get harder, and it gets harder for us to help struggling readers keep up. But how do we address these needs?

As SLPs, we also know it is critical to fade our support so that students can be as independent as possible in future jobs. This article shows one possible method for doing so.

The task of a TISLP writer is no joke, man. 😳

We should really change our tagline to:
The Informed SLP: saving you AND your print budget.

"Basically, when assessing high-functioning students with ASD, especially those on the verge of qualifying, do yourself a favor and include some kind of narrative measure. I know, I know—narrative analysis can be complex and time-consuming, and the authors note this as well. But using narratives in assessment can give us great information about specific areas of difficulty that the CELF just doesn’t address. Besides, narrative assessment results translate so easily into IEP goals, so it will be worth your while. Check out the original article for more details on how they used and analyzed narrative assessment!" K. Evans, TISLP Writer
