WHO AM I?

My name is Jennifer Bradley and I currently am a part time SLP who works with preschoolers and first graders.  I love being creative and enjoy seeing how the students react to the projects, games or ideas that I come up with.  I currently work 3 days a week and spend the rest of the time at home with my 4 month old son, 3 year old daughter and amazing husband.  

BLOGGING LIFE

I have been blogging for 3 months now and I love it!  Blogging has allowed me to meet and collaborate with so many great SLPs and educators. 

 

TEACHERS PAY TEACHERS

I started my TPT store in June 2014 and have been addicted to it!   I have so many ideas and projects that are written down on paper or stuck in my head.  I just need more time in my day to create them!  Over the summer, I plan to create a HUGE variety of materials to add to my TPT store. 

GIVEAWAY NEXT WEEK

To further celebrate spring, I will be having an exciting giveaway starting next week.  Check back on Monday, March 24th to see what the giveaway will be.  You won't want to miss it!

Spring & Easter Fun

Spring is almost here!  Need some ideas or things to do in therapy? Here are some fun ideas to keep kids engaged in your speech sessions. 

Build A Peep A Home

Items Needed: Graham Crackers, Royal Icing (Icing to stick things together), Peeps, Easter Grass, Chocolate Eggs or Jelly Beans

This project can address sequencing, prepositions and following directions. 

Sequencing & Following Directions - While creating the house, use sequencing words such as first, second and last. Give the student 1-2 step directions on how to make the house.

Prepositions - After building the house, give the student directions on where to place the peep and/or eggs.  For example, tell the student to put the peep 'inside' the house and the egg 'next to' the house.

Place all items in a basket or box.  Discuss each item with the student and have him/her describe the items.  When giving directions, tell the students what to take 'out' of the box and when to take them.

Use the icing to put the house together.  Place the grass inside the house. 

Give the student directions on where to place the peep(s) and/or the chocolate eggs. 

Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt

Items Needed: Easter Eggs, Easter Grass, Clue Print Outs, Candy if wanted

This scavenger hunt can address following directions, prepositions, recalling information and problem solving. 

Print out the clue tags (download below).  Write in your directions and place the directions in the eggs.  Make sure you place the tags in the correct order, so that the scavenger hunt is able to be completed.  Hide the eggs in the corresponding spots.  For the scavenger hunt, you can read the clues and help the student or have the student complete it by himself/herself.
