🧱✨ Woordbou met LEGO – leer deur speel!

Met hierdie praktiese LEGO-woordbou aktiwiteit oefen ons:
🔤 klankbewustheid
🧠 fonemiese manipulering
✍️ spelling
👀 visuele diskriminasie
🗣️ klank-segmenteer en -saamvoeg

Wanneer ’n kind ’n woord fisies kan skuif en verander, begin die “aha!”-oomblik gebeur. Dis nie net ’n werkkaart nie – dis hande wat d**k, oë wat soek en ’n brein wat bou.

En kom ons wees eerlik… enigiets met LEGO maak harde werk sommer baie lekkerder 😉

Speel is nie ’n breek van leer nie.
Speel is leer.

Thank you *Playpack* for my super cute "Hug a Lump". I absolutely love it ❤️

Weighted toys provide a calming effect through deep pressure stimulation, which can help reduce anxiety, improve focus, and aid in emotional regulation for both children and adults.

Can't wait to start using it in therapy :)

✨Building our Sticky & Squeeshy Army in Speech Therapy!✨

Today’s mission: loads of giggles, stretchy fingers, and sneaky learning! 💪🧠

Our brave troops (aka squishy friends 🐙🦄🐠) helped us work on:
🗣 Early language and new vocabulary
🎭 Pretend play and imagination
🎨 Categorizing by color, shape & texture
🤝 Turn-taking and social interaction

Who knew learning could be this squishy and sticky? 😄

🌸 Happy Spring Day! 🌼

Just like these flowers, little ones blossom best with patience, care, and connection. Here’s to growth—in words, in confidence, and in joy! 💛

Wat maak my werk so besonders? 💫
Konneksie! Ek glo ek is gemaak om ’n spraakterapeut te wees – nie net oor ek lief is vir spraak, taal en al die fassinerende anatomie daaragter nie, maar omdat ek die ongelooflike voorreg het om deel te word van kinders se lewens. Om op ’n diep en persoonlike vlak te “connect”.

In hierdie foto het ek en een van my leerders besluit om ’n selfie te neem en sommer lekker te lag oor ons gesamentlike “battle scars”. Want soms is genesing nie net oefening nie – dis ook lag en menswees saam. 💛
