-Kelly will discuss the Central Northern Regional Library Speech Language Pathology Collection. Children living in some Tamworth communities are more than four times as likely to be developmentally vulnerable in language and communication domains before they begin school compared to the state average, (AEDC, 2018). Programs such the Speech Language Pathology Collection are a response to this community need. The Collection is a resource for parents, educators and library staff to use at home, in the classroom or during Storytime. The books are wonderfully fun and engaging and model age-appropriate speech sounds, vocabulary, language forms and concepts such as action verbs, adjectives (descriptive words) and prepositions (position words). Each book contains a list of language and speech targets as well as activities to reinforce milestones. QR codes also link the books to the Central Northern Regional Library website and other digital resources.+Kelly discussed the Central Northern Regional Library Speech Language Pathology Collection.
