Instead of “social distancing” we are using “physical distancing” and “social connecting”. Communication is so important at the moment. Read: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.… @almcewin @esantow @SpeechPathAus @IJSLP @wespeechies @ASHAWeb @RCSLT @SAC_OAC @NZSTAComms @iaslt
It is interesting to watch language evolve in these times: Social distancing Self isolation Contactless delivery What ones have you seen? #COVID19

A bit of media coverage in this morning’s Advertiser about our latest study evaluating Reading Doctor apps @FlindersEPSW @FlindersRISE @Flinders
There are thousands of reading apps out there, so how do parents and teachers know what to choose? bit.ly/2okPk4K

To teach reading, start with the "basic" code: a single sound for each of the 26 letters (the short sound for the 5 vowels). Then immediately start blending to read simple CVC words like MAN, SIT, and PET. The child will be reading in no time! There's really no mystery here.

"Through PEDAL's research, the role of play in children's education, development and learning will be more widely understood by those involved in their care and education." Awesome resources: sharing is caring! @rachaelhedger @KarynCarson16 @christina_mou #playresearch

There is nothing wrong with going part-time after having a child. What is wrong is that: A. This affects your career-trajectory B. Men don't do it as often as women
Nearly half of US female scientists leave full-time science after first child nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

4% Year 1 SA students not able to read any of the 40 words in the sample.1 in 25. 1 in every classroom, in my Home State. I'm glad that SA was brave enough to gain this information. SA Speech Pathologists are trained and ready to play their part in helping address it.
Year one students in South Australia are falling behind when it comes to reading skills, with more than half failing a state-wide literacy test. #9News
