Speech and Language
May 4th - May 8th
General Information
Wow, it’s already May! We will continue do our best to keep finding fun activities that help you make progress on your speech and language goals.
Just like it is important to complete school work each week, we are expecting our students to complete their speech-language activities. If students are unable to complete one or two activities each week, we're asking families to reach out to us with a quick message about why their child is unable to participate.
Please remember to submit attendance, so that students are getting credit for their hard work!
Please contact us with any questions, or concerns.
Sincerely,
Susan Silvers, Angie Terwey, and Michelle Cremers

Preschool through First Grade Language Activities
Second Grade and Older Language Activities
The three stories below target auditory comprehension of stories read aloud. Please read one or two of the stories aloud to your child. Ask your child to select between letters A, B, C, and D to describe which details they recall hearing in the story. For a follow-up activity, you can ask them to retell the story while including as much detail as possible.
Middle/high school language activity
After watching:
Tell 2 things a vulture eats.
Describe 3 attributes of a vulture.
State 2 ways vultures and bald eagles are the same and 2 ways vultures and bald eagles are different.
Name 3 birds that live in Minnesota.
State 5 things that can fly.
Have you been to Eagle Park in Rockville to see the huge nest, and maybe see a bald eagle too? Maybe you can go there with your family this spring, ask your parents!
