Your students will LOVE bandaging up the kids while practicing articulation. No prep and super fun! ✄ NEW Easy Cut Version included for free! There are two files in this download (regular and easy cut). I added the easy cut version for my younger students (it has a cutting guide around the images). I also added an optional caregiver note to cut out and glue on the back!
NO-PREP! Ink Friendly! Print & Go!
This activity was designed to be a simple, no-prep activity to target articulation It is a simple cut and paste craft! Perfect for k-5 (some younger students may need cutting assistance, depending on fine motor abilities).

→ Assembly:
None! Print & go!
➞ To use: Print out a page with the child (two kids to choose from) for every student in the group (page 5 & 6 of the download). Print out the bandage page with the target sound needed for each student. I have the students color the child first so that they are ready to put the bandages on (or you can have them color it in between turns to keep their hands busy). The student will color and practice each target word on the bandages. The student will cut out the bandages and practice the words again. The student will glue each bandage over one of the scrapes and practice the word one more time!
