I recently previewed the videotape, "Stuttering: Straight talk for teachers", published by the Stuttering Foundation of America. It is a wonderful videotape that also comes with a booklet which you may find helpful. The videotape provides wonderful information for teachers--you may want to use it as a part of a teacher-inservice on stuttering at your school.

Ken and Judy mentioned other ways to obtain good resources. And, I agree with Ken that this teacher needs some concrete reasons as to why she might want to reconsider the way she is interacting with this child in her classroom.

Best wishes to you. I'm delighted that you are using this conference as a source of information.

Regards,

Lynne
