My speech room received an upgrade this year, so I wanted to share what I am doing with some of the extra space I have. Some of these practices are to help with social distancing due to COVID-19, while others are here to stay permanently.
Interactive Bulletin Board: ๐This year Iโm using a numbered organizer for all of my students to have their own supplies. Inside they have crayons, glue stick, and reward punch card. Hopefully this helps cut down on germs!๐Iโm using @aperfectblendteaching interactive language board to target a wide range of language skills. This is perfect to discuss while we are putting on our hand sanitizer.
SLP Style: ๐Love my new SLP lanyard from @igotchewshop Use code GINGERSPEECHIE for 10% off ๐ Together Again face mask from @shopdisney ๐ PTA provided buttons so our kiddos can see our faces!
Sensory Corner: ๐Sensory area for my students this year. There are pillows with different textures, sensory bottles, and other sensory items for students. ๐In order to keep students safe, I have my Clean Me bucket. This is for fidget toys, headphones, and other things that need cleaned once used. I might not always have time to clean them right away, but when I do have time I can clean them for other students to use. Grab your decal here to make your own!
Color Coded Stations: ๐Colored stools paired with a dot on the table help keep students in their area during therapy. This also allows students to know where to go for speech/language centers.
