Tennessee Association for Assistive Technology Conference: A Presenter’s Review
This year at the annual TAAT conference Vicki Haddix and I held a presentation titled, “Implementing Core Vocabulary through Shared Reading and Writing.” In our presentation we discussed how to implement core vocabulary when engaging in shared reading and writing.

Additionally, we provided examples of materials (i.e. books, websites) that attendees could use during their own therapy sessions.
