Talk Like, Act Like Sticks

 

Talk Like, Act Like Sticks will get your students up, motivated and ready to participate in class. Students love it when they can be a little silly and pretend they are the next best actor/actress!

 

They are great for class participation, taking attendance, practicing reading, increasing language and vocabulary, reciting poems/chants and sharing their daily journal writings.

 

During attendance and calendar time, my students beg for a funny voice to use when answering my questions. There have been times when I couldn't think of a funny voice or action on the spot. So, these sticks have definitely come in handy!

 

Here are a few examples.

 

 

Before I let my students Talk Like/Act Like, we first discuss what their task might sound like or look like. For example, What might be happening to your body if it really was 110 degrees outside? How would you feel? Can you name some places in the United States that get that hot? How would you act if it was the opposite of110 degrees outside? There is so much language you can bring out with these sticks :)

 

Another example, Talk Like You're 95 years old. After my students "perform", I will continue to ask them more questions. "I noticed you were talking with a shaky voice and walking wobbly. Why would a 95 year old person, walk like that?"

 

There are 52 premade signs and 12 blanks ones so your students can have fun making up their own silly voices or actions.

5 Things You Didn't Know About This SLP

 

The Speech Space is hosting a fun Linky Party & Giveaway! I'm having so much fun learning about the lives of other SLPs!

 

Here are 5 Things You Didn't Know About This SLP

 

 

1. This SILLY, LOVING girl right here is the reason I became a Speech-Language Pathologist! I absolutely love this gal! I'm so proud of the young lady she is becoming. She currently has a job working for the City Hall in her city!

 

 

2. I'm married to my high school sweetie!

 

 

3. I have 2 daughters that keep me entertained each and every day!

 

 

 

 

4. One perk about having a military parent is that I can say I've lived overseas! When I was a toddler, I lived in Cuba. I can't say I remember too much about Cuba :) When I was a sophomore in high school, I lived in Sicily, Italy. In the short 10 months that I lived there, I got to see some amazing places. I actually even climbed the active volcano, Mt. Etna!!!!

 

 

5. I'm totally OBSESSED with SNOWMEN!!! If I had it my way, my handsome, little snowmen decorations would stay up all year long!!

 

Make sure to go back to The Speech Space and enter her Giveaway!!

Once they are finished, have your students tell you where the scarecrows are using their phrase or sentence starters. *alternate activity-print in gray scale and have your students use daubers to answer the questions.

#speechtherapyoops hosted by The Pedi Speechie

Karen from The Pedi Speechie is the host of #speechtherapyoops! If you need a good laugh, you definitely need to go check out theses blog posts. Each week, she has a new SLP share their #speechtherapyoops moment! This week I'm sharing my big OOOPS!



 



 

The Frenzied SLPs are linking up to share some Fun Fall-Themed Articulation Ideas!  I have preschoolers that have both articulation and language goals. There are so many opportunities to address articulation while working on language. My little guys absolutely love it when I bring my speech sessions outdoors. Today, I took them outside to our school courtyard to talk about Fall. While reading Fresh Fall Leaves, we practiced are target sounds /f/, /l/, and /v/.

 

We reviewed our 5 senses and discussed the way Fall - looks, sounds, feels, and smells. :) Next, I had them go explore the courtyard and collect leaves to bring back to the classroom. 



 

After we left the courtyard, we brought the leaves that they collected back to the classroom. We discussed the attributes of the leaves while continuing to use our target sounds! SmartExchange has several fall lessons and activities to use on the SmartBoard. We practiced using multi-syllabic words while identifying the names of the leaves that they found.

 
Gotta love Dollar Tree! I turned these adorable tissue box holders into Hungry Monsters! My students had a blast feeding the monsters their target words (Webber's Jumbo Artic book).

Thank you for stopping by! Have fun checking out other Fun Fall-Themed Articulation Ideas shared by other SLPs!
