Super Power Speech is a blog to emPOWER speech pathologists and educators with ideas, materials, and inspiration in their professional and personal lives.
I began Super Power Speech in 2008 as a blog to connect with parents and speech pathologists, making this blog one of the longest running blogs for SLPs in the world! Here you’ll find hundreds of posts of speech ideas and inspiration. I have also developed popular materials for speech pathologists and educators in my Teachers Pay Teachers store.
My goals for this blog include:
- To educate speech pathologists on current therapy topics.
- To make the lives of educators easier by creating high quality materials to use in the classroom.
- To provide easy to follow lesson plans to help speech pathologists with organization.
- To engage other book lovers in fun and meaningful book discussions.
- To track my journey through this decade of life.
