"POOF"....Just like that we are back in school!!

Welcome to the 2015-2016 school year!

POOF!  Just like that we are back in school!   I hope you all had a great summer just like my family did.  Isn’t it awesome not having such a tight schedule during the hot, sunny, easy days of summer?  It was the best…..

I am doing something a little different this year and created an all-about me poster to share.  Many of you know me from years past, but you may not know everything!

Some of my students/families know what to expect the first few weeks, but other may not.  During the first days of school, Underhill speech-language pathologists divide up the caseload of IEP students.  This year we are adding on many of the students from the HELP program, and will now be servicing students from preschool through 2nd grade.  In the following days we craft our schedules, which in reality is a monumental task trying to work around classroom schedules, unified arts, lunch/recess, etc!  A little magic dust always helps!

For the first week or so, I will be getting to know my students through activities, and baseline assessments.  This year I am planning therapy activities around weekly themes and will share the themes with you in the near future.

At the beginning of the school year I also send home homework folders with most of my students.  In the folders you will find my contact information card, information on practicing at home, homework tally sheets, handouts specific to your child’s speech-language needs, a contact information sheet for you to return, and whatever else I can think of to share!

I look forward to working with you and your child this school year.  Let our fun adventures begin!

Keep shining~

Mrs. Wendy Ryback-Soucy
