This game board was a sample from my full Let's Learn About Pronouns Language Unit. It is currently being revised to include gender inclusive language. This download includes the small version of my game board (there is a full file folder size included in the full unit). To play: Use a die and any kind of small toy or object as a game piece. The student will roll the die and move their game piece that many spaces. The student will say a sentence about the picture on the space. I use the prompt “Who has it?” and the target would be to use the pronoun (she, he, it (for the non persons), or they) and the object that is in the space. For example: “She has a balloon.” There are also “roll again,” “move ahead,” and “go back” spaces for the students to follow (these make the game exciting and last longer!). Please note: Please respect and acknowledge gender inclusive pronouns while using this unit. Students may use and identify the images differently than you and that is ok! I use this for grammar purposes (I have many students who say “him did it” etc…, this unit is not to teach identity pronouns. There is very little prep with this game board! Print, laminate, and use! (Page 3 of the download is the game board!) Have fun with it!

When you hear about SLPs using themes in speech therapy, you may envision crafts, picture books, and preschoolers.... not middle and high school students. I totally get it. The truth is, the majority of theme-specific speech therapy activities include cartoon graphics and building early language.But that's not the only way to do themed therapy. Ironically, as my interest in using themes grew, so did my caseload of older students. Around the time that I started doing teletherapy full time, I chan
