There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed Some Books

Here is our book for the week!  It's a super funny book about an old lady who swallows all sorts of school items.  First, I will read the story and then we will act it out with real props.

 The following is an activity that you can do at your home with your children.  You can have the old lady "eat" all of the items in the correct order.  (books, pen, pencil case, ruler, folder, chalk, bag) and then out of her mouth came the backpack.



Here are some other blogs that have other great activities!

Bossy Bear


This week in my articulation class KIWI we are working on the letter /b/!  During centers, we read the story "Bossy Bear."  I had all of the students say "bossy bear" with me when it came up on the page.  We also have a board full of letters where the students can bring in environmental print for our letter of the week.


In our parent center, we have a bin with blue rice that contains all different objects that start with /b/ (like a bunny, boat, ball, etc.).

In one of our centers, we have a bunch of cool vintage boxes.  Inside, are objects that the children will practice saying.  The words go with their specific IEP goals.

In our other center, we have a cool bee game that is like kerplunk. The students practiced minimal pairs that went with their IEP goals, then they got to pull a leaf out.


Here is the homework that we gave:  The students can color the pictures that all start with /b/, and then paste them under the sentence.  Then they can practice saying the sentence.  There are so many /b/ words in each sentence!

Bus Activity

This week in our articulation class we will read 
If your student is in Mary or Alissa's class, you can do this activity with your child at home! First color all of the school items and then out them on the bus. 



You can work on general articulation and have your child say the words after you. You can also use this as a categorization activity and talk about what items you can find in a school.
