In this week’s episode, SPA’s Anneke Flinn speaks with Tessa Weadman, paediatric speech pathologist and PhD candidate at La Trobe University. Tessa chats about the clinical applications of her research study looking at the classroom-based shared book reading strategies used by early childhood teachers, and how these can be developed to better support the oral language and emergent literacy skills of preschoolers.
