When most people think of the phrase “compare and contrast,” they think of using it to teach students to recognize the difference in colors and shapes.
As students age into upper grades, comparing and contrasting becomes even more important as they generalize the concept and make connections between what they are learning about in school and their own life.
In this episode of SLP Coffee Talk, we are talking all about teaching comparing and contrasting in speech therapy.
For students to be able to successfully compare and contrast, they need to be able to comprehend what they read, understand the vocabulary, know how to express it, and know how to put it all together. All of these things fall into our domains as SLPs.
How can you help your students master this skill? Tune in to hear my favorite teaching methods, tools, and strategies to help my students understand how to compare and contrast with pictures or video, between a story and background knowledge, and between two different articles.
