Our target words for the day:
- Here
- Uh Oh
- Yay
- Up
- Down
I emphasized each word with an action. I said 'here' when handing him items to stack; I said 'Yay' when stacking was successful; I said 'Uh Oh' when our stack fell over; I said 'Up' as we built up our towers of spices, rigatoni and chicken nuggets and 'Down' when then came tumbling down.
Stacking rigatoni. The Fruit Loops were meant for stacking too, but they ended up getting eaten instead. |
Adding a little spice to our lives. |
Overall, today's activities were a huge success. I feel that by constantly engaging him in these language-rich activities, we are making progress. We are winning the battle to take back the words he has said in the past and seemingly lost!
Spoken Words Today:
- Here
- Uh Oh
- Yay
- Again (so proud of this brand new unintentional word - he wanted to keep stacking and started repeating this when I asked if he wanted to do it again!)
