☘️ St. Patrick’s Day Speech Fun! ☘️
Activities focus on:
Articulation practice – Students can spin the articulation wheel and practice their target sound in words while collecting shamrocks or coins each time they say their sound correctly.
Category and vocabulary building – Using the “Pot of Gold Categories” activity, students sort picture coins into the correct category (ex., food, animals, body parts) and explain why the item belongs in that group.
Labeling and describing – Students play St. Patrick’s Day Bingo and label the pictures on their board (ex., leprechaun, rainbow, pot of gold). This encourages vocabulary practice while also expanding language with simple descriptions.
Fun themed stories and conversation – We read St. Patrick’s Day themed stories like "Pete the Cat: The Great Leprechaun Chase" and practice answering questions, retelling parts of the story, and predicting what might happen next.
Seasonal activities are a great way to keep learning engaging while helping children build important communication skills. Who knew speech therapy could be this lucky? 🍀
