Hey friends! I hope your week is going fabulously!! I have been enjoying my second week off…I got totally obsessed with Orange is the New Black (on Netflix, if you don’t know, you better ask somebody) and watched 2 seasons in 2 days. No my son was not home…totally inappropriate. Now I’m onto Scandal. Don’t judge me.
ANYWAY, it’s time for my freebie this month and I found a goodie that I never shared! WHAT? I know. I keep some things up my sleeve during the year just to share during the summer. This is one. I like to think of it is as genius. It probably isn’t, but I like to think it is. SO, I work on a lot of story telling. Narrative goals run crazy wild in my speech world. It’s probably one of my favorite skills to work on and I can get pretty creative with it! The beauty about materials for story telling, they can double for working on carryover for articulation, voice, and fluency goals also. Score! Get on with it, right? Roll a story!
All you need is dice! Students can roll and they get a character, setting, and problem…then they can come up with their story! You could also have them roll three times to come up with three different elements and make a silly story! These are great for working on development of each story element on their own or complete episodes. I love it…and let’s face it, if it involves dice or craziness, the kids love it. Winning.
You can grab this freebie HERE. Don’t forget to leave me some comment love and let me know what you think or other ideas you have 🙂
xoxo,
This is great! Thanks so much for the idea and the freebie. Also- I too am addicted to Orange is the New Black and just finished Season 2. Someone had recommended Scandal to me as well, maybe I’ll check that out next!
This is great!! Thank you so much and enjoy your summer!!! I have ONE MORE WEEK, although I’ll need even longer to fix my room!!! 🙂
Thanks will be good for carryover for kids who do not like a lot of reading.
Love this! Thanks
Thanks…I’m already thinking of other possibilities for characters, settings, problems.
OMG, Scandal, LOVE. Still have 2 episodes from Season 1 that I didn’t watch yet (once the spring IEP season hit me like a ton of bricks)…and yes I am catching myself watching Orange is the New Black over my husband’s shoulder on his iPad, trying to fight the urge to get addicted! But really, I LOVE your roll a story idea. I totally enjoyed therapy this year with more “go to” activities to target lots of skills, like jokes as well as interview questions! Thanks, as always!
Thanks! I will be focusing much more on narratives this year. This will be great!
Printing this RIGHT now to use at summer school today!! 🙂 Thanks friend!!! I just finished season 1 of OITNB (in 2 days ha) and am on the 3rd episode of season 2….HOOKED!!!!!!
Thanks will use this this summer
I would use the polka dot this time. I bought this planner last year and really liked it!
Love it – perfect to go with First Day Jitters!
Ha Ha Ha! I actually downloaded the Roll-a-Story…. I Guess your planner will also go with First Day JItters!!
Once again, you rock. Thanks for the freebie!
This looks like it will be fun for the kids and very creative.
I love this! It seems like it will structure the writing of my little-more than emergent reader ELLs. Thank you!
Thanks Darian!
What a great resource! Thank you!
