I read a Facebook post from Speech Therapy Now about how a “Speech Gnome” moved into her classroom. As soon as I saw it, I knew that a Speech Gnome had to move into my classroom as well! I immediately went on Amazon and bought a Gnome door (for under $9) and then starting making this FREE packet so that others can join in on the Speech Gnome fun! All of the Gnome letters and writing prompts in this packet are completely editable so that you can change anything you need to make this work in your classroom. This packet can be easily customized to be used by classroom teachers, reading specialists, occupational therapists, etc.

Found these today at the dollar spot at Target. Thought they would be great for stretching out sounds, isolating syllables, or a reinforcement.

All week long we have been learning about going to the dentist, how to keep our teeth healthy, and what/how to communicate if something in our mouth hurts. Today we made mouths and we practiced flossing with our mouth model. Everyone did a great job at shaping/making their teeth, following directions to build their mouths, learning parts of our mouths, and practicing flossing. Here are some pictures from the group today.

This video is great for facilitating language on going to the dentist.
