Ideas to be considered in proposal:
~Hearing and kindergarten screenings
~Selective (usually articulation and language based) direct therapy
~Administrative duties (typing IEP outlines, making copies, constructing therapy schedules, scheduling meetings)
~Recording progress in cum files
~Recording data when taking fluency or intelligibility counts
~Taking data in a small articulation groups to maximize the therapy time
~Obtaining updates on consultative students from classroom teachers, IEP information (recent grades, SOL scores, etc.), scheduling meetings, etc.
