OCTOBER

October has arrived and we are celebrating my favorite time of the year FALL!!!!! 

This month we will explore a different theme each week: We read stories, have worksheets, and spooky speech words.  We learn new vocabulary, put them in sentences, draw pictures and talk about same/different.   We are carrying over their skills in the classroom with Unlocking the Code and using our lip, tongue and throat poppers. We are also talking about vowel sounds.   

October 3-7 -  All About Fall
October 10-14 -  All About Pumpkins
October 17-21 - All About Ghosts
October 24-28 - All About Halloween


We have finally gotten into the swing of school, and speech therapy classes! The students are working hard to get a smiley stamp each time they attend speech, do their best work, and follow the rules.  Some of the kids are getting a chance to dig through the prize box!  So much fun... 


Some months we make a project for the bulletin board.   We found that some of our speech sounds were in those FALL words!   We even talked about the leaves changing colors and decorated leaves for the board.   



We took a "poll", which means we asked all the kids a question... 

Have you carved your pumpkin yet?     
                           YES = 16          NO = 21
