Writing Prompts and Speech??

 

Hey Everyone

If you're wondering where I've been, I've been enjoying summer with my family.

I love them but it is 10 times harder to be a stay at home mom than to work...I don't know how I do both!! ( I get summers off *kind of!)

Anyway ... I bet you are wondering why a speechie is using writing prompts? I use them for my older students because my caseload at my schools (yes 7 of them!!) is quite severe. They are, generally speaking, low readers and writers. In my Writing Prompts pack,  I have added about 40 pages and it is now over 130 pages. Its a great deal for under $5! I have it set up with monthly packs with cover pages or  you can mix and match or just use individual sheets. There are blank pages so that you can write about your own topic.

It's no prep, and hey, it's also great for teachers.

 I made this writing prompt pack so that I could work on students writing skills. I know that teachers work on this but I like to do it a little differently...

If you are interested in how I tackle it, check out my post here. 

In addition to working on writing prompts I also use my Observing and Describing for my older caseload. I have it on sale for a buck all month!!

Enjoy the sun!!

Part 2- Tier 2 Classroom Activities

 Welcome to Part 2 to my Tier 2 Classroom Activities.

This activity is great for vocabulary for pre-k and kindergarten age students. They will like this activity which you can use as clip cards (and work with your students who are struggling) or as a bingo game for your entire class. In my world, I would use this activity for the class and have the teacher observe and help the students she knows are struggling with this particular skill, so they have more focused help.

This activity is available in my store for a buck! It is important that tier 2 activities be affordable! :)

 

What Am I description: You can use these clip cards as a literacy center or speech therapy for children who are reading (or you can read to them). The students read the clues and then choose the correct item.
For the Bingo game you can hand out the mats (5 versions) to your students and then cut out the clues. You place the clues in a pile and read them one at time, each student that has that item covers it up with a bingo chip or other fun manipulative like goldfish. The first person with a straight line or black out wins!

Keep your eyes out for my next version of Tier 2 Classroom Activities. 

Cheers,
