The Speech Bubble

About

  Thanks for stopping by The Speech Bubble SLP. This whole 'blogging thing' started a few years ago for me. After seeing some other speech and teaching blogs out there I thought, 'Hey, that looks like fun!'. So I decided to dive right in!  I had no idea that the 'blogging thing' I stumbled upon would become such an intense passion! I started The Speech Bubble SLP to share thoughts, ideas, and activities to help professionals find ways to help their clients/students express what is in each of their ' speech bubbles' <-- get it ;)  After all, everyone has the right to be heard! I want to remind SLPs why they love job or maybe find a way to love it again.  I want to help you see how fun your job can be no matter what setting you're in. I want to help you save time so you can focus on your students/clients. I want to help you destress and give you the tools to be the amazing professional that you are! So what is this bloggy, TpT thing about for me? It actually took me a while to figure that out but I finally figured out how to put into words my … Read More

'It's just /s/' or 'it's just /r/', I used to wave these off as just speech sound kids…no connection to reading other pronouncing the words wrong. I didn’t know then but I do now, this is not where we should be stopping. ⁣-⁣The impact of speech sound disorders can run much deeper than what we hear when a child is talking. Phonological awareness can be impacted which spills into literacy issues and basically all of academics 😳⁣-⁣Using literacy-based therapy to help students identify words with speech sounds not only exposes them to concepts of print, it shows real world application of sound and provides a visual for you to use for some phonological exercises 💪⁣-⁣If you’re thinking 💭, ‘Where do I start?!’, you’re not definitely not alone. When I created Level Up with Literacy Based Therapy, I made sure show how you can use literacy based therapy start to finish! -The doors open on June 2, so make sure you’re on the list to be the first to hear all the deatails and get the inside scoop on literacy-based webinars! 💻 -Click the link to sign up: bit.ly/levelupspeech-#thespeechbubbleslp #schoolslp #slplife #speechlife #speechtherapy #elementaryslp #slpsoninstagram #slpeeps #slp2b #slpslovelit ...

Again, I was met with, “How can my thinking be flexible?”  I could see I needed to think outside of the box for this one.
