Practically Speeching

Use this packet to review an emotion each month or week, depending on how you are including this in your sessions. Laminate each emotion and attach the emotion pictures with velcro. Use dry-erase markers to fill in the statements. The statements target self-soothing strategies, and associate the appropriate action with an emotion. Use as a monthly activity or hole punch and use binder rings for a session activity.

This book was created for use during a push-in session for a nonverbal child with autism. It follows a typical morning meeting structure - day, month, year, weather, season. It's a great way to get your nonverbal kids involved with the class activity! Simply print the book, cut out the manipulatives, and use velcro to have an easy on/off pull.
