I hope everyone had a great weekend! I got busy on a lot of my Pinterest projects this weekend, including my very first Pinterest Party with some of my girlfriends and we had such an awesome time. One of the things I worked on was for school, so I thought I would share it with […]
Free Similes Game
I have a freebie for you guys today! I got some adorable clip art with stars from From the Pond and I couldn’t resist making something real quick. I really like quick and easy board games that can be used to end a session and reinforce a skill that we have been working on. And I […]
Common Core Standards and SLP
I’m sure you all have at least heard about the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), especially if they have been adopted by your state…which, let’s face it, most states have. As a school based SLP and as a parent, I am a fan of the CCSS. Who hasn’t seen the impact of a student moving in […]
Helping Verb Freebie
Helping verbs. Our children with language impairments have so much trouble with these. I saw this really cute post on Pinterest for a Helping Verbs song, but of course the link was broken, so I have no one to credit it to…nonetheless, its cute! So, of course my creative juices started flowing and I made […]
Student Folders
I got a couple of emails about the student folders that I mentioned in my last post about data collection (you can check it out HERE). Each student I see has a folder of the three prongs and two pocket variety. They are responsible for bringing it to and from therapy. There are a few things […]
Binder System for Data Collection
From discussions with my SLP friends and what I have read on several other blogs, we are all always trying to refine our data collection. I know for myself, I love to see what other people are doing…so of course I thought I would share my own system, which continues to be changed a little […]
Bee Verbs
I used some really cute bees I got from Scrappin Doodles and made a new verb game! The activity is exactly the same concept…you have 3 hives, one for each past, present, and future. There are 30 bee cards with 10 different verbs in each tense. There are both regular and irregular verbs included. You can […]
Apple Articulation Game
I mades some card games, one each for TH, L, R, and S words. There are 28 cards in each set, with 8 initial, 8 medial, and 8 final words, as well as 4 penalty cards for the game. There is even a cover card and instructions card so when you cut them all out, […]
Fish Bowl Articulation Craft
I thought I would share some more of the beach themed ideas for therapy I have been working on and some that I did with my students before summer vacation started. The first is an idea I got from another great speech blog, Speech Therapy Ideas. Becky posted a fun idea for fish bowls to work […]
July 4th Card Game!
Here is an open ended card game that you can use to reinforce any skill you are working on. It is a points game, which always gets my students motivated! They just love it! All you have to do is put the cards in one pile and have each student taking a turn pulling from […]
![Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) play a crucial role in children's language development. One often overlooked but highly beneficial area to incorporate into speech therapy sessions is print knowledge. Understanding the importance of print knowledge can enhance therapy outcomes and foster literacy skills in children. I recently worked on a paper with some colleagues about the importance […]](https://i.pinimg.com/236x/ce/7f/bd/ce7fbd4a90a9683531d8b43d60ee2a68.jpg)
