Fall Bucket List

Here is our "FALL Bucket List" for Speech and Language!

Bucket List - a list of activities a person tries to complete in a certain amount of time.

I am challenging my students to complete as many items as they can on our list 
during the fall season.  These are fun activities you can complete together as a family!

All of the activities listed on our bucket list will enhance both receptive (understanding of) and expressive (use of) language skills.  These activities target social skills, grammar, vocabulary and comprehension, sequencing, articulation and much more!

While completing an activity on the list, name items and ask questions (who, what where, when, why and how).  Comment on the things your child is doing and saying so they can hear (and learn) the new vocabulary!  If your child is working on specific speech sounds (articulation skills), point out words or items that have your child's target speech sound and practice saying them together!
Some of these activities may be new experiences for your child.  Children are usually curious and excited to try new things!

Make every opportunity a language learning activity!
Enjoy!
