Chain Letter Link Up

Today we have the pleasure of getting to know Kristin Cummings of ‘Simply Speech’. This wonderful blog has cute, useful materials and great

🚨✂ Step away from the scissors! ⁣
-⁣
When materials have lots of cards, like my WH Curriculums, don't waste time cutting with scissors, get a slicer instead.⁣
-⁣
You can get a good, cheap ( I'm talking $10 here ) paper slicer and seriously save yourself hours of work! You can get a slicer and any craft store and of course, Amazon.⁣

🚨 Ok, this is my two cents about this FAQ⁣
-⁣
A narrative language approach and literacy-based approach are not the same thing, the difference is subtle, but still there.....however⁣
-⁣
These two approaches are best used together to get the most bang for your linguistic buck 💸 in therapy. ⁣

August you, will love you for this. Prep your materials over the summer, bit by bit, so you're not stressed in the fall. I know, no one wants to think about fall when summer is staring you in the face...but trust me. ⁣

🥰Combining a narrative language approach with dialogic reading can help you get the most out of your literacy based therapy sessions. ⁣
-⁣
Breaking down character transformation when you are at the end of the story is an easy way to target multiple goals with one activity. ⁣
-⁣
Be sure to include visuals you used throughout the story to help students recall connections to the information!⁣

Getting data in literacy based theerapy doesn't ha

Getting data in literacy based theerapy doesn't have to be hard! Narrative Language Measures by Language Dynamics is one of the assessments/screeners I mention in the Story Sidekick.⁣⁣
-⁣⁣
The CUBED Assessment from Language Dynamics @languagedynamicsgroup uses quick Narrative Language Measures to get a picture of where skills fall. Oh and it’s totally FREE🌟⁣⁣
-⁣⁣
Per their site, ‘there has been a primary focus on students’ decoding ability. This is only part of the picture. Only 20% of students need targeted decoding support but 60-80% of students would benefit from an increased emphasis on language.’ ⁣⁣
-⁣⁣
You can see what assessment I recommend plus a complete guide to utilizing Dialogic Reading and Narrative Language to take your literacy-based therapy to the next level!⁣⁣

Pick books with quality characters! Not all books

Pick books with quality characters! Not all books are a good fit for literacy based therapy and if you aren't sure if the book you want to use is, assess the characters. I love the depth of the characters in Jory John and Pete Oswalds' 'food group' series.⁣
-⁣
⁣Are you a⁣⁣
🥚 Good Egg⁣⁣
😎Cool Bean⁣
⁣👎🏻 Bad Seed⁣⁣
🥔 or Couch Potato⁣
⁣-⁣⁣
Each book has rich vocabulary, lots of inferencing opportunities, and great themes such as self acceptance, self esteem, and self care.⁣⁣
-⁣⁣
These books are perfect for your K-5 caseload. I really like using books from a series, or from the same author, so kids can see how a characters can evolve ( or carryover to a different story ) and the events that caused the change. This can open up some great discussion and points on narratives that might other be overlooked.⁣⁣
-⁣
It should be noted that 'quality' of the characters will look different based on the population you work it. 'Quality' can be making sure your students are feeling culturally represented in the books, seeing a reflection of themselves and their disabilities, life-styles, interests, etc. ⁣
