Speech Slime! Speech Therapy Science Experiment Visuals and Worksheets

Bring science to your speech sessions! I created this resource to be a companion to the simple borax free slime recipe. This is great for whole group lessons or to use as a celebration activity (I do activities like this once per 6 weeks). This pack is full of awesome slime themed activities (students love SLIME!!). This recipe is simple and easy to make (borax free). A Speech Experiment for your whole caseload!

Please note: I am not a science teacher, these were not designed for science classes (although the visual supports could be incorporated into science lessons). This product is great for following directions, sequencing, describing, and having fun (not meant to teach the scientific method).
