First of all, I miss your kiddos so much!!!! During the school closure, I will be providing a variety of services for your students. This activities are all optional. I know this is a chaotic and stressful time for everyone, and if you are unable to add anything else to your plate, I completely understand! But I want to provide options for those who are able and wanting some speech-language therapy during this time.
Every student will receive:
-a "skill" of the week video or handout to help you work with your child each week
-a calendar with daily speech and language activities that can be done at home in just a few minutes
Students with language goals will receive:
-weekly group lesson/activity via Zoom* (if you cannot log in at the time this is offered, I will also be recording myself doing the lessons so that you can watch later with your child).
Students with articulation goals will receive:
-weekly small group "speech labs" via Zoom* to practice correct sound production
-target word lists to practice at home
*You will receive a separate message via School Status in the near future with the schedule and login for the Zoom meetings that pertain to your child. Please download the Zoom app on your phone or computer.
All handouts, videos, etc. will be posted on your child's teacher site (Google Classroom for Preschool and Seesaw for Kindergarten). I will send out a quick blast via School Status when things are posted so you know when and where to look! I will also probably post them here on my blog for easy reference.
Remember that participating in these Zoom activities is optional, and I also realize that the times that work for me may not work for you. So in addition to the items above, I am also always available by phone, email, Zoom, etc. during typical school hours to answer your questions and figure out how to best support your student at home.
Please let me know if you have any questions. In the meantime, be on the lookout for your Zoom meeting invitations, as well as information when I start posting material for home practice!
