Can you even believe we are already planning and talking about the new school year? I can't. It's been a super busy summer and I am not sure I am ready to tackle the year just yet, but I'm working on it anyway!
It's theme therapy calendar time! Woohoo! I'm excited to have this year because last year I didn't do one. And I paid for it. Big time. I was so disorganized with planning my therapy and I didn't like it AT ALL. I vowed to never do that again, so here she is! Check it out…
This is the guide I am planning on using…for now. It may change, just because I'm in a new school and I haven't learned the ropes yet. I'm excited about some new things I've thrown in, plus some oldie faves that will be new to these kids since they don't know me yet. Ha. Cheating. The good kind.
On top of that, I linked up ALLLLL of my personal resources for every theme. Every. Single. One. It took forever and I thought I was going to lose my mind, but when I finished, I was fine. I mean…I've always been a little cray cray. The good kind 😉
AND, there's blanks for my friends. That's YOU! Yippee! PLUS the PDF has fillable fields (i.e. you can type in them!). So you can customize for your caseload. That's like the ice cream with the cherry on top!
I hope you guys LOVE this resource and it helps you throughout this school year!
You can find the Theme Therapy Resource Guide in my TPT Store!
I'd love to hear what you think, or if you have a favorite theme! Share with me!

One often overlooked but highly beneficial area to incorporate into speech therapy sessions is print knowledge.

I started dong theme based therapy consistently last year. Love it! Thanks for the resources.
Awesome! I hope this helps you!
Love it! Good luck with everything!
Love this idea and your resource looks great. I’ll have to track you down on TpT. Thanks!
Thank you so much Rebecca!
I’m hoping to start using themes this year and this is so awesome to get me started! Thanks and good luck in your new school!
Hey Jenn,
Just wanted to know if the activities for each theme can be used with elementary students (grades 1-5)? I work with grades k-8. Do you have anything that can be used with middle school kids? I’m always having trouble coming up with activities for this population.
Thanks,
Claudia
Hi Claudia! Yes, I have used them for K-5, and even some with my middle school kids. With the older grades I am able to use some of the nonfiction activities. It really just depends on what kind of kids you are working with. Mostly with my 5-8 graders, though, I work on things that their teachers gave me from the classroom because they were all needing help with accessing the language in the curriculum.
