Worksheets?!  In speech?!  Why?!

I like using worksheets for many reasons.  1 – quick prep!  2 – easy to see students work independently.  3 – great for mixed groups when you want to work with students individually and give others busy work.  4 – great for collecting data at the end of a session. 5 – I like to use to remind myself what we already did in speech!  Was that kid absent?  Did I do that activity with THAT group?  I have evidence with a worksheet in a speech folder or notebook!

 

Worksheets can be challenging to keep students engaged and motivated.  It isn't a game?!  So we got to find ways to make it fun.  What other challenges might you have with worksheets?  Photocopy machine may break, printer can run out of ink, or you just printed it out quickly right before the session and you don't have time to make or print enough of copies!

 

I will share with you 3 fun ways that can save you time and also save the fun in your speech room!

 

Make it dry erasable

I like to keep a stash of page protectors for these quick moments.  I do also have dry erase sleeves which you can grab by viewing the link below.

I can always grab my one copy of a worksheet or just make enough for 1 group and I can use it over and over again with dry erase!  But how will I get data later if I am erasing?  Take a picture with your phone or iPad before erasing!

Use different colors to write!

Only one copy?  Give each student a different color to write with!  They can each provide input on the worksheet, each take ownership of an answer to a question, or each write a sentence in the essay.

Make It Digital!

One of my favorite apps, Doodle Buddy can make any worksheet fun.  Just take a photo of the worksheet or a screenshot of it if you have the download in your Dropbox.  You can upload the image into the app and then write all over it!  So much fun and done!  Learn more fun ways of using this app by clicking HERE!

Do you incorporate the curriculum in your sessions Do you incorporate the curriculum in your sessions?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I get asked this all the time!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In the newest episode of SLP Coffee Talk, I am sharing a trick with you that I like to do that makes me feel like I am incorporating the curriculum into my sessions.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is a shorter episode, but I think you are going to get a lot of value out of hearing how I use curriculum maps to bring in some of the same concepts that our students are learning about in their classrooms.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you want to feel like the activities you are doing in your speech room are relevant to what your students are focused on in their classrooms, tune in!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Do you feel like you are just going with the flow Do you feel like you are just going with the flow this year?  I hear ya!  Virtual, in person, hybrid..whatever..it is unlike any other.  Our job was demanding and stressful before this pandemic!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thoughts that have ran through my head this year:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 am I grabbing their attention?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 will I have parent support?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 will they log on?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 will I have any guidance or support?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 will something change last minute?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 can I do this virtually?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 am I doing enough?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can go on and on! So many thoughts this year that I have to remind myself...I am only human.  I will do what I can.  Sometimes...done is better than perfect!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let's work together.  I am there with you.  We can push through until the end of the school year together.  We will be stronger together. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
