In this presentation, participants will learn about speech sound development and disorders and their effect on the acquisition of reading. The essential components required for skilled reading will be reviewed, with a focus on why speech sounds matter for literacy. Understanding this relationship will equip educators with some of the knowledge and tools to identify young children at risk for later reading challenges.
