Speech-Language Pathology and Bachelor of Science in Special Education from the
University of Connecticut. Her career has spanned over 28 years focusing
on many age groups ranging from birth to the elderly.
Programming for students with
language-learning disability involving literacy and written expression has been
an area of specific interest for Theresa. She has utilized a variety of

Maryellen
Rooney Moreau, the author and creator of Story Grammar Marker, noted that “Narrative
language is vital for telling and re-telling stories orally and in writing,
listening and reading comprehension and for social-emotional growth”. The narrative organization is comprised of
elements referred to as story grammar which increase in complexity at both the
macrostructure and microstructure of story narration. The presentations/workshops
will focus on the developmental nature of narration and the patterns and
linguistic structures. A variety of
assessment and progress monitoring tools will be reviewed. In addition, the Stages of Narrative Development will be defined
and applied in the assessment and progress monitoring process. A variety of research-based strategies and
tools will be discussed and how they can be implemented with students at the
different developmental levels. These
visual, kinesthetic and tactile tools and icons will assist students in
improving narrative structure, length and complexity with their own stories at
the sentence level (microstructure) also.
Discussion will focus on designing intervention and instruction using
scaffolding strategies through ongoing data collection.
