This paired text resource is perfect for having your students practice citing evidence from a text when answering questions and when writing persuasive essays. Click here to see the Citing Evidence Set With Compare and Contrast Writing Prompts. Click here to see all of my Paired Passage and Paired Text Resources. This resource includes eight paired text sets. Each set includes two paragraph-length texts sharing an opinion on a topic. Each paragraph in the set shares a differing or opposing opinion. Each text set includes several opportunities for the students to practice answering questions using textual evidence. Each set comes up with two text-dependent questions that require textual evidence and a printable activity of some kind that is text-dependent. In addition to the questions and printable activities, each paired text set includes a text-based writing prompt. For the writing prompts, the students must decide their opinions on the topics. Then, the students must write persuasive essays using evidence from both texts to support their opinions. Since there are eight complete sets included in this resource, some of the sets could be used for practice and some for assessment. This is a perfect resource to prepare your students for standards based assessments.

One of the most important aspects of our practice in speech-language pathology is making sure our assessments and interventions are evidence-based and are in line with the current research. All I hear about in grad school is EBP EBP EBP!! It's THAT important. I have shelves full of textbooks and notes that have all of this information in it. However, is that really practical to flip through all that information all the time just for 1-2 paragraphs?! NO WAY! I was getting frustrated and wanted a quick and easy reference material to solve that problem. So I created this Evidence-Based Practice Binder to do just that! This binder is intended to be used as a tool to guide you in your decision making. It is intended to serve as a guide and summary and is, by no means, a replacement for the actual articles and research and is not intended to be an exhaustive list. Please read the articles listed for full descriptions. At the beginning of the binder, I have a section specifically on evidence-based practice, what it is and how to implement it. At the beginning of each section, you will find introductory information about various disorders and some assessment principles for certain areas. These are followed by charts for the most common areas of our field in the school, clinic, and hospital settings. In each chart are the therapy techniques for that area, the intended population, a description of the technique, the evidence showing it to be effective or ineffective, and other helpful notes. Also included are a list of commonly used apps for each area. Some of them are evidence-based, some are not. This binder could be used as a reference for day-to-day practice, when planning and implementing IEP goals, when addressing parent/employer concerns or questions, when studying for the Praxis exam, when you need a new or different technique to try, or when you have a particularly challenging case and need a starting point. The following areas are included: What is Evidence-Based Practice (pg. 4) Key Steps to Evidence-Based Practice (pg. 5) Overview of Assessment/Management of School-Age Population (pg. 6) Service Delivery (pg. 7-10) Articulation/Phonology (pg. 11-21) Social Language (pg. 22-37) Vocabulary (pg. 38-46) Grammar (pg. 47-56) Fluency (pg. 57-63) Phonological Awareness (pg. 64-69) Swallowing (pg. 70-82) Augmentative and Alternative Communication (pg. 83-92) Thank You (pg. 93) Terms of Use (pg. 94) Each area is separated by its own cover page. I plan to keep adding to this resource over time. If there is something you would like to see added, please email me at [email protected]! I'd be happy to add it for you. Does this seem like something you would like?? You can find it in my Teachers Pay Teachers store here! I will give a copy of this binder to one lucky reader!!

Visual cue card for lanyards: these cue cards are meant to be placed on a ring and carried with all adults that are working with a child with autism.
