Have you seen them? Pool noodles are everywhere... especially Pinterest. I'm here to share my ideas on using pool noodles for word work, spelling, and sight word activities in the classroom or for your homeschooler. Keep reading for my "oopsie" moments as well! If you are wondering why pool noodles are all the craze, let me tell you why...CHEAP. QUIET. EASY TO FIND. TACTILE. FUN. Seriously, pool noodles are my new favorite manipulatives because they are so inexpensive and don't make any noise! They are colorful, easy to manipulate, and perfect for fine motor skills. You can stock your literacy centers with pool noodles for building sight words, practicing spelling words, creating word families, or working on CVC/CVCe words for just a couple bucks. I was cutting my pool noodles while my littles were napping. My cat was very skeptical. She couldn't imagine what we were going to do with all of these. As soon as my preschooler saw these, he was all over it. He wanted to build every word he knew! He started with his name and then progressed to some simple sight words that we keep on index cards. We worked together on this activity, but he could also work independently by using the sight word cards to build his towers. These noodle letters are great for building spelling words and word families too. Here is my #1 tip for teachers and homeschoolers who are planning to run to the Dollar Store to bring this activity to life for their kiddos... Think about which way you write the letters on the noodle pieces. When I first started writing with a Sharpie, I was writing them all sideways. OOPS moment #1. Here is my next tip- think about how you want kids to build the words. Do you want them to build towers like this? If so, a paper towel holder from the Dollar Tree is perfect. If you would rather them build the words horizontally, like they are written, you will want to use something like a dowel rod instead. This is my four-year old, Reed, when he first started building his name. He started with R, so he ended up spelling "deer." Oops #2. I'm loving pool noodles for hands on, easy, and fun additions to any Pre K, Kindergarten, 1st grade, or 2nd grade literacy center! I would love to find out how you use noodles in your classroom or with your homeschooler. Leave a comment and share your ideas!
Games! Games! Games! It is one of the reasons I love being an SLP. The tricky part is turning commercial games into therapy tools. My students love to play games, so what better way to motivate them to practice their speech targets. I love to use Pop Up Pirate, Jumpin Jack, Shark Bite, Pop the Pig, the Sneaky Snacky Squirrel, Yeti in my Spaghetti and Fishing games. One way you can use them is with articulation or language decks. The students practice their sounds or language target and then take a turn. Quick and easy. I have also started to use Game Companions that go along with each game. These game companions replace the dice or spinner that comes with the games. The spinners have targets that the students practice before they take turn. Shark Articulation and Language Game Companion For the games that do not use dice or spinners I use game mats that have articulation or language targets on them. When you remove game pieces from Fishing games or spaghetti from Yeti in my Spaghetti you place the game piece on the mat. There are targets on the mats that the students practice. These can also be used as Smash mats. Yeti Spaghetti Articulation and Language Game Companion I have created 2 Freebies that I wanted to share with you. I created free K sound spinners that I use with Jumpin Jack. The spinners can also be used by themselves as a game. Free Rabbit Game Companion for K sounds Another Freebie that I have created is for commercial Fishing games. It includes mats that target early apraxia syllables. There are mats for VC, CV, CVCV and CVC syllables. Free Apraxia Game Companions for Fishing Games Games are such a great motivators for our students. They are a great way to work with those mixed groups that always present a challenge in therapy. I hope these spinners and mats are helpful. Click here to follow my tpt store Speech Gems.

My Preppies absolutely LOVE playing games. I use them in our Literacy and Maths rotations, and then move them to be a 'free choice' option for a bit of learning disguised as play! Here's a few of our favourites (that I'm sure you've seen online before!): 1. I call this one 'Power Tower'. The kidlets take turns to choose a cup from the pile. If they can read the sight word written on it, they are able to add it to the Power Tower. For low-ability groups I help and we figure the tricky words out together. The motivation of missing out on adding a cup to the tower is enough to make the other groups think long and hard about the tricky words, and we rarely have to pass on a word. 2. My 'Splat!' mats were the best thing I made this year for my classroom. I'd been using 'Splat!' as a way to practise sight word recognition, but I was forever losing my laminated flies and bugs - of which I had hundreds in order to cover all of the words in our sight word program. These mats make it so easy to play - grab the mats that cover the lists you want to revise, grab the fly swats and off you go! 3. I'd say that 'Gone Buggy' is the favourite of all the Maths games we play in my classroom. I use a pocket dice, some dollar store bugs and laminated jars. The kidlets love to add bugs to their jar when they roll a number, but are always disappointed when they roll the bug spray or a fly swat! First to 10 bugs wins. :) I originally saw this idea over at Kindergarten... Kindergarten. 4. Oh iPads... is there anything you can't do? I have 10 iPads in my room and I use them for independent skill practise, listening stations, as a reward and for those kidlets who respond well to the visual/auditory/kinaesthetic combo (uh... that may be all of them!). Do your kids love games as much as mine? :) Lauren
Remember the game Don't Break the Ice from when you were little? Well, it's still around. I'll bet many of you even have one in your therapy closet. I was at Walmart the other day and found one on sale for $4.88, so naturally I snagged it! It just needed a little something extra to make it work for me. Sooo I created this packet to accompany Don't Break the Ice. This way you can play it articulation style! Here's a little how-to for one of your very own. The first thing to do is print out all of the squares onto card stock. I'd laminate them too for durability (especially since they are going to be banged on!). Then, cut them out. I made them smaller than the actual ice cubes so they should fit fine. Adjust by cutting them down if you need to. Next, stick velcro to the tops of the ice cubes. I used velcro stickers. You can get these at Walmart or any craft store. Stick the other side of the velcro to the backs of the squares. Assemble the game as directed. I put the cubes in before I attach the velcro together. See below. After you squeeze them all in there, attach whatever sound squares you need to target. Each sound is a different color, so you can mix and match what you need. I used all /r/ sounds for this one. There are several ways you can play this game. Here are a few suggestions: 1. Play the game as directed. For each fallen ice cube, the student must say the word (you can have them say it 5 times, in a sentence, using their fluency strategy, etc.). 2. The student has to say the word each time they tap the ice cube. 3. Students can say "I went sledding and brought a..." and list the items on the ice cubes as they collect them. 4. Let them make up silly stories or sentences with the words they collect. This packet comes with ice cube toppers for the following sounds: /r, s, z, l, k, g, f, v, sh, ch, th, dz, r-blends, s-blends, l-blends/. You can grab it at my TPT store here! What do you think? Do any of you have Don't Break the Ice??
