More Dollar Spot Finds…

by

I loved Highlights magazines as a kid.  I liked the Hidden pictures, the rebus stories, the poems, but my FAVORITE was the Goofus and Gallant pages.  I was really excited when I found this book at the dollar spot this week.  Here are some other things I picked up: I think the Rebus story book […]

One more Squinkie therapy idea…

by

Just one more quick Squinkie post and then I’m done for at least another few months.  One of the things that I like about Squinkie’s is that it allows me to use my clients favorite things for motivation.  Here was a quick activity I did with one client who needed to work on he/she pronouns […]

Squinky Directions Part 2

by

I found this little Polly pocket house at Goodwill for 1.99 this weekend.  It folds up for easy storage.  I liked the fact that there are lots of different areas that you could use for spatial concepts or following directions.  The refrigerator opens, you can move the stairs or you can lift up the bed […]

Motivation: Random thoughts

by

I have days where I just can’t seem to get the motivation to do get things done like going to the gym or balancing my checkbook or floss.  Somethings I need to bribe myself into doing.  Pay your bills and then you can play a quick game of Bejeweled Blitz.  It helps when you get […]

Speech-a-dilla’s

by

Conjunction Resources

by

“Conjunction Junction, what’s your function…”   That song and the “I’m just a Bill, sitting here on Capitol Hill” (seemingly prophetic in these divisive political times) send me back to my flannel night shirt days.  Saturday mornings my brother and I would wake up so early there would be a test pattern on the screen. […]

Hot lips and Octopus hangers…

by

I spent too long at Target this week because I was avoiding going back out into the FREEZING cold.  I ended up with some fun Dollar Spot crafts for Articulation or language cards.  Check out these cute animal clips.  They come in a set of 3.  I used them for articulation today, but you could […]

New Year’s Resolution #2: Stop being a materials hoarder.

by

You can tell a lot about a speech language pathologist by the size of their laminator.  Well, at least I have a special love for laminators.  I started in grad school with rolls of cloudy/clear contact paper.  This was back in the days of the old Linguisystem SPARC books and I’d stay up late in […]
