Abstract
This study presents some of the results of a research study on Specific Language Impairment (SLI) pupils. Our aim was to design an intervention programme based on inclusive education principles, which could support both language development and access to reading of a sample. The sample used was made up of six SLI children who had been diagnosed with the help of language and cognitive tests. Implementation was carried out in the pupils´ schools during regular classroom hours as well during remedial classes. In this study we show the effects of the programme on lexical development and phonological processes. The contrast between pre and post-tests was analysed for variables such as lexis, phonological processing and length of utterances. The results show significant improvements in all variables under study.
