In this presentation at the Oregon Speech-Language & Hearing Association (OSHA) Fall 2024 conference, Dr. Jenny Larsen and I presented an approach to language/literacy interventions using storybooks across cultures. The presentation was a follow up to the Spring 2024 OSHA conference and presenters had an opportunity to walk through workshopping a plan using a guiding template informed by the literature on contextualized language intervention.
