Apraxia Activities Value Bundle for Speech Therapy

The Interactive Apraxia Activities Value Bundle offers a creative and engaging way to elicit multiple repetitions of targets with children with apraxia or severe articulation needs who are working at CV / VC / CVC level.

Your students will have so much fun as they play and interact with the characters in each story! As an SLP, you will love that they are provided the opportunity to practice multiple repetitions of target words in a play-based context.

Even more, the packets in this range are progressive. Your students will benefit from therapy using the packet that most closely aligns with their goals.

Four of the packs in this bundle now include a matching set of BOOM! Cards perfect for teletherapy and distance learning! These are available in the Farm, Zoo, Bath Time, and Winter themes. The other themes will be added over the next couple of months.

The BOOM! Cards are easy to navigate with a comprehensive Table of Contents. Each of the 6 stories in each theme features engaging graphics and moveable pieces so the student can “play” with the characters while practicing their targets.

You will also find 6 drill pages, and slides to practice relevant vocabulary at the CV/CVC/CVC level.

“HIGHLY recommend this bundle – worth every penny! It is so versatile – good for CAS, severe artic/phono, basic concepts, etc. Each packet contains 6 bright, highly engaging stories with lots of opportunities for interaction. The datasheets and cute pacing boards are a huge bonus – thank you for including them! And I love the b&w mini-books – they are perfect for homework.”

How to use your Apraxia Activities packets:

First, you will need to choose the story at the appropriate level for your student. Print, laminate, and cut the baseboard and characters. I like to use these as cookie sheet activities. Simply fix the baseboard to a cookie sheet and stick magnets to the back of the characters. Voila! you have a stand-up storyboard ready for play (and practice)!

Read the story and act it out using the characters. Have the students help you to retell the story, prompting them to say the target words (written in bold in the story). Each packet contains 6 stories to use with each baseboard.

Following the provided photo instructions, make up the mini-book that matches the story you’ve selected. You can have students color their books as you repeat the therapy exercise with another student individually. Or you can use this time to take data. The datasheets are set up so you can collect data from each story on one convenient sheet!

I like to send the mini-book and drill sheets home for practice. If you wish you can print the blackline version of the baseboard and characters for each student also. Parents love to play too!

Apraxia story cards are illustrated target words from each packet in the series divided by syllable divider cards for easy target selection. I find it handy to keep each set of cards to use in my classroom by laminating and securing them with a book ring.

Another creative teaching tool you will love to use is this engaging “Power Cards” set. Fun illustrations portray the most powerful words and phrases used in each pack. Use these cards to carry over learning and meaning for your students from therapy into everyday communication.

“I was so thankful for this product!!! I had a couple kids with apraxia and was using the same thing each session, and was having difficulty coming up with what material to use, and how to best keep track of the data. I love that you provide a data-tracking and offer books, interactive sections!!”
