Spooky Tossing Games for Halloween

by

One of my favorite things to do in therapy is just throw things around the room.  Sometimes we throw picture cards, sometimes we crumple up our worksheets (when we are finished) and toss them in the trash.  Sometimes we slide our picture cards under the door while we tell them to go away.  It’s a […]

Speech Interrogations: 2 more super simple activities for the busy SLP

by

I picked up a police badge and holder at the dollar store and wasn’t sure what to do with it.   Then one day I grabbed my flashlight and started doing “Speech Interrogations.”  I only did this in individual sessions so I can’t speak to how well it would work in group settings.  I also played Speech Cop […]

Jenga: quicker clean up

I’m a sucker for a good makeover story.  I used to love the makeovers in my teen magazines and then progressed to shows like What not to Wear and Trading Spaces.  I even had my own (embarrassing) make0ver story.  We were invited to a New Year’s Eve party for my husband’s boss.  It was just a simple […]

Sequencing: Grab bag and End of the Month TPT round up

by

I’m getting closer to finishing my conversation starter and WH question bundle.  I’ll be posting a survey on Facebook early next week to see what my last two topics should be.  I LOVED grab bags as a child.  Even now, I’m tempted to buy grab bags-even though I know it’s probably the merchandise that wasn’t […]
