About Me
Let's Taco 'Bout It!
Hello!
Thanks for visiting this ever growing language hub! My name is Katelynne Buechner, but most people call me Kate, because let'e be honest, Katelynne is quite the mouthful for kids already in speech!
This blog came out of from my experiences as a Speech and Language Pathologist (SLP) across the hospital, private clinic, school settings and as the momma to a (very) strong willed little boy (who is convicted communication is unnecessary most days). My passion for speech therapy is undeniable, but augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) holds an extra special place in my heart. This blog will provide you with resources I have found and/or created along the way and can hopefully help you too! From light/no prep therapy tools, to IEP materials, scheduling tips/tricks and templates for tracking IEPs, this site will help with it all!
As a visitor here, you are part of a fantastic community that wants to help individuals of all backgrounds and abilities learn valuable communication skills. Every human being is unique in their likes, dislikes, quirks and traits, so these posts are to help you brainstorm activities that can easily and quickly engage in speech and/or language development that is specific to them.
Thank you so much for being part of this community. There are plenty of ways that you can become more involved. Experience has shown me that there is no "one-trick pony" that will work with every individual in every situation. That being said, the ideas shared on this blog have been successful for at least one individual, so give them a try and let me know what does/doesn't work for you!
