"In my fellowship, I was able to work with a Speech Pathologist that effectively used both the pull out and inclusion techniques with children. Working with her, I learned that each child's situation is unique and will determine which situation will work best for them. For a student that needs to remain in the classroom and not be withheld from lessons, it was important that their therapy was conducted with the class. This method enable the teacher to also be engaged in the process. Certain situations, like where a student had a sever impairment, called for pull out one on one therapy. For these students, the one on one time was much more effective and efficient for both the student and the class as a whole."

"I tend to utilize pull out one on one therapy more often than not with my students as I find that the personalized time with the students is much more effective than the classroom setting. However, there are times where the teach and I have worked on effective inclusion strategies that can help benefit the student at times as well."

As a Speech Pathologist you may have had the opportunity to work with children within the classroom. As a Therapist you may lean one way or another in regards to how you conduct your therapy: Inclusion or pull out. Be honest with your observations and experiences regarding this topic. There are no right or wrong answers as this is a highly debated subject.

"I prefer the pull out method. I feel that removing the child causes less of a distraction to the rest of the class. Imersing the child in therapy with others on the same level allows the focus to be on them 100%."
