Dear Parents and Students,

There will be monthly calendars with daily activities for students working on articulation, receptive and expressive language, fluency (stuttering) and social skills. These activities are for you to work on so you can continue to improve your speech and language skills and maybe learn some new things at the same time! Please feel free to use this resource however it is most helpful to you and your family.
We miss you! Have a wonderful summer!

Articulation
As summer approaches, we would like to encourage you to help your child maintain his or her speech articulation skills, as they have worked very hard this year. Attached you will find calendars of daily activities intended to stimulate articulation skills. Please take a few minutes at least 3-4 times weekly to focus on good speech articulation. The activities within the calendars are intended to be brief and enjoyable. We thank you in advance for supporting your child’s progress. Most importantly, have a happy and safe summer. Enjoy!!

to share their experiences.
• Have your child act out the social communication activity for role-playing purposes.
• Use descriptive words to explain how you would feel in each situation.
Most importantly, have a happy and safe summer. Enjoy!!
