Welcome to Ms. Melody's Speech page! I am excited to be working with your child and look forward to a wonderful year full of growth and positive experiences. I am a licensed speech pathologist with nine years experience of working with children with various needs from preschool through high school. I became a speech therapist so I could better understand my own child's speech/language concerns and learning needs. I find speech pathology very rewarding as I am only but one instrument in the orchestra of your child's ability to find his/her voice in this world. 

I have joined the Seesaw app with the teachers for whom I provide services to students. So be on the look out for practice, videos and/or pictures of your student during speech therapy.  In addition, I will be providing web links to activities that you may find helpful for your child's speech/language needs.

If you need to contact me about your child, I can be reached through my email: mlaranjeira@wtps.org   We will work together to make a difference in your child's speech and language skills.
