Do you ever have days where you know exactly what you need to target, but are just looking for a different way to do it? I know I have had many days like that, especially when working on articulation. My first year in the schools, I know that I was so frustrated with the monotony (to me at the time) of working on articulation, that I wasn't sure I even wanted to do the job anymore! With my crazy caseload now, I have gotten over the feeling that articulation work is monotonous, and now embrace the time I have with my students working on articulation. We can have so much fun together! So, you may ask, how did I get over the feeling of monotony? Well, I made a deal with myself that I would try to change things up. I would take items that I already had and use them as reinforcing activities during articulation work. Here are ten activities that really work for me: 1. Go Fishin- This is a game that I had in my speech room, and every time I had it out for my preschool population, my older students would see it and want to play too. So, I changed it into a way to use it for articulation work. I wrote numbers on the bottom of each fish, so that each time my students catch a fish, they have to say their word or sentence that many number of times. If I could do this again, I would start with higher numbers (I did 1-4) to get more productions. 2. Making Progressive Sentences- My kids think this is hysterical. We start with one articulation card and make a sentence. "I see a soccer player." Then, we add a card and add to our sentence. "I see a soccer player eating a sandwich." Then, we add even more! "I see a soccer player eating a sandwich with Santa." 3. Chipper Chat- This is my one go to item that is fun for all ages. My students LOVE to pick up the chips with the magnetic wand. Students roll the dice and say their word or sentence the number of times on the dice. Then, they get chips to put on their board. When they fill up the board, they can take the chips off. Sometimes, I have students start with all of the chips on the board and take that number of chips off the board. I use the set from Super Duper Inc., but there are lots of different magnet chip boards that you can find on Teachers Pay Teachers. If you don't buy the Chipper Chat set, you can find a bingo magnet and chips at a store like Wal-Mart or Target. I have even seen them at the dollar store occasionally. 4. Paper Clips on Articulation Cards- This works great with the chipper chat magnet wands. Just put paper clips on your articulation cards, and the kids can go fishing for cards. I like to put the cards face down so that the cards are a "surprise" each time. 5. Memory- Ok, I'm sorry, but really, my kids of all ages still LOVE to play memory! I try not to play it too often so it doesn't wear out it's welcome though. 6. Paper Bag- Put cards in a paper bag and pull them out. Try to guess what you will get before you pull it out. If you guess correctly, you get to keep it. First person to guess all of their cards correctly wins. Some kids have a really eerie ability to do this! 7. A Good Book- I love to take a good book out for students and try to find words that start with their sound. I pull out a piece of paper and we write down all of the words that have their sound. I love when I can have them bring books from class for this so that they may think about those words again during reading groups with their teacher. 8. Categories! I have students pick a word from their articulation cards and tell me the category of the item. We create piles of different categories and see how many different piles we can make. Students have to say their word in a sentence, "A sandwich is an food." I love this activity because students get both articulation and language benefits. 9. Guess the Item- I describe the articulation word to the student and see if they can guess the word I am describing. 10. Articulation Recall- We roll the dice to see how many cards the student has to recall. I then present that number of words to the student and give them a moment to memorize them. Then, we flip them over face down and see if the student can recall each word before flipping it back. There you have it! Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned veteran, hopefully some of these ideas will help you to cut the monotony and put more fun in your articulation sessions.

Are there too many errors in your kiddo's stories? Stuff to take out. Stuff to be added. When you say it's time to edit their papers do you hear a universal groan that includes the yourself? I always dread trying to tell the kids that the papers they have labored over need some tweaking. They don't want to add. They think it's just fine. They don't want to take away. They think it's just fine. Even if their story is without punctuation, without capital letters, without juicy words. They. Think. It's. Just. Fine. I knew I needed a plan, a way to get them excited about editing. What could possibly make them want to see red marks on their papers? I needed someone to "save the day" but Captain Capital was already busy capitalizing all of our proper nouns...so I decided he needed a friend...or maybe a relative...in a crazy Cousin Itt kinda way (and no that's not a typo he has two t's in his name - like I said, crazy). I needed someone who liked to leave his mark. Enter Editing Ed. Who can be upset with a wild haired, google-eyed character - even if he is marking up your paper. And if you are feeling really frazzled (not that writing ever makes me feel that way) you can give him a few twists and you will feel much better. I promise. So...here's a step by step tutorial on how you can make your very own Cousin Itt Editing Ed! Get yourself some crazy hair, google eyes, and red pens. Yes that price tag says 24 cents (for the whole bag) thank-you-very-much Target clearance! Cut a 4 inch strip. Make sure you fluff the "hair" up (think 80's big hair bangs that stand straight up - and yes, unfortunately, I am speaking from experience) before you cut so you don't cut off the long pieces. Ed does not look good sportin' a crew cut. Glue. Glue. Roll. Glue some more. And now you have a reason to LIKE editing marks! I like to introduce editing marks and make an anchor chart with the class. Later in the day, when they are out of the room, I put this note on their desks with Ed attached to the space on the side. Before they come in I tell them we have a special visitor that has come to help them with editing. Click on the picture to download the note. The five mistakes are: ed, together, and i need to be capitalized, yoo is misspelled, and there should be a period after papers. Happy editing!
Finally we get the vowel sounds down - the short vowels - the long vowels - and then it happens. Bossy R comes along. Now those vowel sounds we were so sure about are not the same! This always seems to cause my students to *stall* so I'm taking the bull by the horns car by the steering wheel to help them practice and master these sounds. Since we will have to *park* here for a while I thought it might be fun to burn a little rubber while we're at it! Click on the link below to download your parking lot, directions, and bossy r word cards. Now all you need is a Hot Wheel from the bottom of the toy box and you're ready to roll. I know. I know. The car puns were a bit much but I couldn't help myself. I'll try to hit the brakes next time. Really I will.
