This activity was designed to be a no prep activity to target articulation and language skills in an engaging way. It is an activity that keeps students busy during practice! Make a Santa face with cotton balls while practicing speech therapy objectives! Now includes a Google Slides option with moveable pieces. Great for distance learning, teletherapy, or a no print option.

This product is available in a cotton ball craft bundle: Scroll down to the bottom right on this page to see it. 

This download contains following sounds: initial/final: p, b, m; final: n, t, d; initial/medial/final: k, g, f, v, l, s, z, ch, j, th, sh; pre-vocalic r; vocalic r (er, ar, or, air, ear, ire); rblends; lblends; sblends (separate mats for sp, st, sm, sn, sk, sl, sw, mixed). Language targets included: categories, association, object functions, compare/contrast, winter/Christmas vocabulary, actions, positional vocabulary, plurals, idioms, multiple meaning words, adjectives, and antonyms/synonyms. I also included open-ended pages. First practice, then make a Santa face.

 *Please note: There are 14 target words on each articulation page (2-3 of each, totaling 32words).

Materials Needed: Small cotton balls, glue, and a Boo Articulation sheet (use the small, light cotton balls: the cheaper the better!)

 Assembly: None! Print & go! 95 pages

 Tips: If you can, print on cardstock to make it less flimsy (I use paper when I am using it with all of my groups). Tear apart the small cotton balls to make it less heavy (this can also keep hands busy in between turns).

Articulation pages: The student will practice the target word and then glue a cotton ball over it. Continue until the Santa face is complete (therapist will determine the number of trials per word). You can have the students fill in the beard/hat with extra cotton balls if desired. The word/picture list on the bottom is to encourage caregivers to practice the words at home.

Language Pages: These pages are more open-ended, the targets to practice are on the bottom of the page. Use at your discretion. The student can practice a skill then put on 2-3 cotton balls until the ghost is complete.

 Variations:

  • Use bingo chips to cover up the pictures as a drill mat
  • Use torn up tissue paper to create the Santa face
  • Use paint, crayons, or markers
