I have had the privilege of meeting many of you already and have seen some great progress with your children's speech and language skill in the first 3 months of school! I really enjoy your children and the smiles they bring to my face! With winter break quickly approaching I wanted to share some ideas on how to maintain the progress your children have made this year over the upcoming long break.
1- Keep on reading. Your children are required to read at least 20 minutes a day in their classes. It is important to keep this up over the break. Encourage your child to read out loud for at least 10 minutes of that time while practicing to use their good speech sound. Sit with their child while they read so you can provide feedback as needed for their speech production. 2- Take a look at the homework page. I have provide links to some great speech resources. Find a page with your child's target sounds. Make flashcards for them and practice them daily. To make it more fun, you can make two copies of the words and play a game with them such as Matching or Go Fish. You can also have them say a word or two before they take a turn on other games you already have at home such as Chutes & Ladders or Candy Land. Taking a little time each day to focus on speech will help your child reach their goals more quickly and maintain the skills they have learned at school. Your help is vital keeping the momentum going. Thanks you so much. Please contact me with any questions you may have.
