SpeechPage {Materials Monday}
I was given the opportunity to check out some materials from SpeechPage this school year.

Here are the products that I previewed: The first thing that I […]
“Games” and Speech/Language Therapy
“Man, it must be such a blast to be a Speech Teacher. I mean, all you do is play games all day right?” How often have you resisted the urge to “school” somebody who says something this misinformed? We’ve been having our annual observations by administrators and I’m constantly concerned that they might observe a […]
Shhhhh…. It’s a SECRET WORD!
This SLP likes a challenge… and figuring out this one was just that!

We have had a record-breaking summer in Kansas City and I’m sure many of you out there have also been experiencing the heat. To celebrate this glorious month and reward my amazing […]
Fantastic Football!
(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 […]
