| Abstract: |
The effectiveness of a collaborative consultation approach to basic concept instruction with kindergarten children was investigated. Following 8 weeks of intervention by a school speech-language pathologist, university faculty, a classroom teacher, and a physical education teacher, children in the experimental group demonstrated significantly higher performance on target concepts than a control group who received the regular education program. Suggestions for further use of the approach are discussed. |
