As you know this month has been all about colors! To add to this I have been specifically working on two word phrases (color + object) with several of my kiddos. My go to resource when working on two word phrases for colors and objects is Mr. Potato Head (ex. blue nose, green hat, etc.) but I also put together some interactive flip books too! These flip books have been great to expand new vocabulary of nouns and colors. Check them out below! You can click on any picture below to check it out on TPT too! (Sorry for the glare, lamination just doesn't photograph well!) ...
I was so excited when I saw Smarty Ears was looking for bloggers to review their new app, Smarty Spell. I LOVE the Smarty Ears apps for speech and language therapy and use many of them in my therapy sessions each day. I was even more excited because this one seemed more geared towards teachers with the spelling theme. I don't work on spelling with my speech kiddos (there may be SLPs that do, I just don't have any kiddos on my caseload with spelling goals). So, when I reviewed this app I looked at it purely from a teacher stand point. First, the price of the app is $3.99 and is available in the iTunes App Store. I think the price is definitely fair. Here's what the icon looks like. Such a smart little hippo! Here is the opening screen. Very easy to navigate and begin using right away, Setting up players is super easy too. You simply put in a name and add an avatar or a picture. I choose an avatar. I like that it doesn't ask for a birthday. ...
Happy St. Patrick's Day! Things at work have been ridiculously busy and my sweet husband's baseball season has started so I apologize for being so MIA. I just wanted to pop in real quick and share a new FREEBIE! I have a few little kiddos who LOVE cars and we are working on naming and identifying vocabulary. So, I while trying to combine the two I came up with vocabulary parking lots! You ca download them for free by clicking on either picture below! Here's the parking lot in action! You can also connect mats to make one long road as kiddos get more and more comfortable with the vocabulary. What can you use these for? Here are some ideas! • Following Commands: Say “Drive to the ___”. • Naming Vocabulary: Say “What’s that?” • Identifying Vocabulary: Say “Can you find the __?”. • Two-step directions: Say “Drive to the __ then go to the __”. • Object function: Say “Find something we __ (wear/eat/ride, etc )”. • Qualitative Concepts: Say “Find s...
Happy March! March brings one of my favorite themes to teach, colors!! During the month of March we did anything and everything to do with the rainbow when I was in the classroom! So, in speech this month I wanted to incorporate colors into therapy. With my little ones we will be sorting objects by color and practicing our two word phrases for colors+object and with my bigger kiddos I have some crafts to incorporate more difficult articulation or language goals! I plan on doing all of this with my new packet, All About Color ! This packet was created for speech and language therapy but also for kindergarteners too! I know those kinder kiddos work on identifying and naming colors throughout the school year and there are many activities in here that would work great with kinders! I think I am most excited about the crafts, I am a sucker for crafitivities. There are three crafts with templates included in the packet. I had to throw in a pot of gold for St. Patri...
