The Digging SLP

This is similar to my other Following Directions listing, but without use of manipulatives...the images are included on every page! I use it when my brain really can't think on the spot to use manipulatives and give directions and monitor their responses. This is all done for you and is neatly categorized by the Level, Skill, etc., from the CELF-5. I can NEVER think of directions in the moment during therapy, let alone remember/know whether I am doing No Orientation, Serial Order Orientation,

I can NEVER think of directions in the moment during therapy, let alone remember/know whether I am doing No Orientation, Serial Order Orientation, No Modifier, One Modifier, or Two Modifiers. And who can remember to do right/left orientation?! This is sort of like a template for ANY and ALL kinds of directions there could be (based on the CELF-5). They are written so you can substitute ANY OBJECT, COLOR, and SIZE; that way you can use it with any manipulatives you have. But if not, I also inclu

I used to think working on Recalling Sentences was dumb, to be frank. But since taking on this mission to create my own materials for all subtests of the CELF-5, I began using manipulatives (one per word) while giving students words to recall/repeat. And they're growing! (I know, I was shocked) I use errors as opportunities to address phonological-based grammar errors (e.g., She live in the jungle vs. She live s in the jungle). Guys, I even made a goal for it, and I swear this kid's grammar is

I struggled to find ways to 'teach' use of subordinating conjunctions and complex sentences. For so long, I gave students images and asked them to make a sentence using, for example, the word 'because' (to no prevail). Or if they were able to make the sentences, it was 'because' (pun intended) they already had the skill! As soon as I began using an Independent Clause and having the students create the Dependent Clause, they began to take off. Only after they understood the meaning of the subordi

Tasks are meant to address deficits identified with the Item Analysis of the CELF-5. These tasks address deficits in Direct Requests. The picture stimuli teach children that must determine whether the given sentence means 1) the speaker themselves is doing/has done the action, or 2) whether the person in the sentence is acting toward someone else, telling them to do something. The children must listen for the initial action (i.e., that someone "said" something), and 'hold on' to who is speakin

Honestly, targeting Verb Phrases isn't my favorite thing. It leaves it open for so many different variables (e.g., the object it takes, tense, etc.). But I'm on a mission to make stimuli for every Item Analysis of the CELF-5, so I made them anyway. To reiterate, what's being taught here does include Verb Phrases but the contrast is sometimes in tense, the object being taken, modification, etc. Even on the CELF-5 assessment, the child must know about future tense (finite verb) in order to accura
