During the summer many kids do not attend speech therapy (usually because they receive it at school) and I thought what can I do to help? So, this summer every Monday I will be posting ideas of how you can enhance your child's speech and language skills at different spots that people frequent during the summer. I will be posting on the zoo, carnival, parade, camping, and much more!
Today is my second post
The Zoo!
Trick 1- Sequencing the Animals!When you are looking at a map or making a plan for your day talk about which animals you will see and use words like first, next, last, second, third, etc.
Trick 2- Labeling the attributes of the Animals! Talk about the animals, and thier attributes like a giraffe has fur, 4 legs and a long neck, etc.
Trick 3- Talk about how the animals are the same and different. For example the a bear and polar bear are both bears but a polar bear is white and lives in the arctic, etc.
Trick 4-Talk about the rhyming animals- You can rhyme with real or nonsense words. Tiger, liger, miger, etc.
For more ideas check out my pinterest board- Useful SLP Resources!
I hope you enjoyed this post!
I would love to hear some of your ideas and any requests for places you would like me to post on!
Cheers,
Mindy
