Working towards an Inclusive Curriculum

The move towards an inclusive model of education presents teachers with the difficulty of differentiating the curriculum for children with speech, language, & communication impairments. This paper focuses on the WiSaLT (Withywood Speech & Language) Curriculum Appendix - a tool which can be used by teachers & speech & language therapists to help such children access the mainstream curriculum & to promote improvement in their language & communication skills. As well as highlighting potential areas of difficulty within each attainment target for key stage one, the appendix guides users to specific strategies & activities. Thus the speech & language therapist & teacher can identify which attainment targets might prove problematic for any one child & also have access to ideas which can help. 2 Tables, 2 Figures, 4 References.
