(Because it’s football season, I wanted to re-post this activity for you from May, ENJOY!) I’m a sports girl. Give me a field and a ball and I’ll play! So, I love to integrate sports into my sessions. (It helps that the majority of my caseload is boys though most of my girls enjoy the […]

Augmenting Board Books
I have a confession… I’m obsessed with board books! I particularly enjoy finding them for the least amount of money possible! They are great for early intervention, early childhood, and the severe/multiple disorder populations. This summer, I have the opportunity to get back to the population I LOVE working with… severe/multiple disorders and Autism! […]
Phineas and VERB!
Is it just here in Kansas City that kiddos are generally CRAZY about 2 things… Angry Birds and Phineas and Ferb. They think the step-brothers, their projects, tattling sister, secret Agent P (Perry the Platypus) and show are HILARIOUS! After many requests for P&F, I had a mini-pun pop in my head. Ferb and Verb […]
Art and Inferencing/Predicting Collide!
I appreciate and love art but have noticed that my students have very little knowledge about famous paintings/artwork (much unlike their insane knowledge of cartoons, video games, and apps). So, it’s difficult to find things that they do not have prior knowledge of to use for inferences/predictions. I was browsing my photos of artwork that […]
Splendid Summer!
For those of you in the school setting, summer is a wonderful time that we look forward to! However, we know that oftentimes, our students do not continue to work as diligently on their speech and language skills during these weeks off. I’m a huge believer in providing parents/guardians with the resources they need during […]
Batter Up!
It’s baseball season and here in Kansas City, we have the All-Star game to host this year. So, in the spirit of another “promising” season of baseball throughout the country, I made up an all-purpose All-Star baseball game for use as a reinforcement activity in the classroom, speech room, and at home! You could use […]
DIY of the Week: Articulation Battle Boats!
Ahoy Mateys! It’s a busy time of the year with evaluations and standardized testing but I have managed to squeeze out one new idea recently. I have had TONS of requests from my students for me to “find” my Battleship game that had “magically” disappeared from the speech room after countless failed attempts to teach […]
St.Patrick’s Day
We are about four weeks away from St. Patrick’s day and the invasion of the color green. However, if you’re like me, you need to start gathering materials for that week so that it can be ready to go! I’ve started re-vamping and creating materials to use and finding materials online. Here are the documents […]
DIY of the week! Artic. Towers!
I can in no way, shape, or form take full credit for this great idea. However, I modified it for my use with /s/ and /r/ in therapy and my kids LOVE it! They are known in my room as Artic. Towers! What you need for 1 tower: 1 – Pringles Can (I got the […]
BONUS DIY of the Week: Artic. Sticks
Okay, I admit, I like popsicle sticks, perhaps even a little too much. And my kids seem to think they are magical as well. So you can’t blame a SLP for finding every way possible to use these beauties… and here’s another: To DIY you’ll need about 60 sticks, a sharpie (fine point works […]
