knowledge of morphological, syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic systems, which
also are crucial for reading comprehension and written expression. They
understand the theories, principles, and developmental expectations for these
systems through the school years. With their knowledge of spoken-language
development, SLPs can then analyze how the advancing language demands of
textbooks (Scott, 1994), academic talk (Sturm & Nelson, 1997), and
curriculum may stress a student's capabilities. American
