Double Dotting Speech is unique because I incorporated two “dotting” tasks for this activity.

It is great for groups because the other students will have plenty to work on (coloring, connecting the dots, dotting) while you work with the other students. I have my students color the gingerbread man in between turns (optional). Designed for an elementary caseload (some pages can be used with middle schoolers depending on skill and interest level).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI have found that incorporating art into speech sessions can be a great way to encourage carry over skills. When kids make something it creates the “look what I made” mentality which increases the likelihood they will show a caregiver or teacher later. I included a caregiver note on the bottom of these pages that encourages home review\/practice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThese are no prep and great for busy weeks when you don’t have a lot of time to plan. You could also send these as homework.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials needed: bingo dotters, crayons\/markers, black marker or pencil.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSuggested use: This is how I use these pages in therapy. The therapist can use at their own discretion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFirst I have the students connect the dots and we review the words on the gingerbread man that we will be practicing (this is a great step if your student needs auditory bombardment for articulation). If it is a language task, I use this time to remind them of the concept we are working on. Next, if I am in a group, I will start working with one student and ask the other students to start coloring in their gingerbread man. The last step is practicing the targets and dotting them with a bingo dotter. For the articulation pages, I purposely made the circles big, requiring multiple dots per circle. I have my students practice the words multiple times as they fill up the circle (the therapist will determine the number of trials per word).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTip: A black marker or crayon works best for the dot-to-dot but you may need to use a pencil with younger students.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"LexicalEditor__textBold\"\u003eThis version includes the following targets:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cspan class=\"LexicalEditor__textUnderline\"\u003eARTICULATION\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: Initial\/final p\/b\/m (for bilabials and final consonants); final: t, d, n (for final consonants); initial h, w, y; VC\/CV\/CVC\/CVCV; initial\/medial\/final: k, g, f, v, l, s, z, sh, ch, th, lblends (initial\/medial), initial sblends (sp, st, sm, sn, sk, sl, sw, mixed), final sblends; pre-vocalic r, er, or, ar, air, ear, \u0026amp; rblends (initial\/final); 3 syllables\/4 syllables\/5 syllables, and complex clusters.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"LexicalEditor__paragraph\"\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cspan class=\"LexicalEditor__textUnderline\"\u003eLANGUAGE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: name the category, name items in a category, which one doesn’t belong, compare\/contrast, wh questions (what, when, where, who, why, mixed), how questions, guess the word (from a description), functions, actions, positional vocabulary, past tense verbs (regular and irregular), plurals (regular and irregular), multiple meaning words (with and without picture support), antonyms\/synonyms, and associations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: All of my Double Dotting Speech packs contain similar targets\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e***This is a digital download, you are responsible for printing the product to use. \u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e \u003ci\u003eThis purchase is a ONE user license, sharing this file in any way is not permitted.
