TpT Shining Stars Linky Party!

TpT is throwing a second Back-to-School sale on August 20th!!  What a fantastic idea!  Many parts of the country start school after Labor Day (that means me!) and having this additional sale is perfect timing.  My mindset is finally focused on school related preparations.  I have added products to my store as well as shopped for products to add to my repertoire now that the school year is quickly approaching!   Special thanks to Jen over at SLP Runner  for organizing this link up.    Here are some of my favorite items that I wanted to share…

My first (and newest) item in my TpT store is an activity for your older students, which has been the focus of many of the products in my store.  Back to School Problem Solving for Middle and High School Students!

It includes step by step strategies for solving problems, scenario cards, open ended speech/thought bubbles, some tips to help  teens start off the school year, and a recipe card with healthy lunch ideas!!

 

My Back to School Bundle {Student Planner and Executive Functioning game} has been receiving good feedback.  It is actually two products combined into one download!

First, this unique activity addresses good organization in older kids.  I created a home planner for students to help them keep organized when they leave the walls of the school and get them through their morning, afternoon and evening routines!

 

The second activity in the bundle includes 36 executive functioning strategy cards that will help students answer questions/listen to tips related to preparation, time management, organization and good listening strategies.  A great way to help get them centered and focused for the school year!

 

Lastly, I have a back to school FREEBIE to help get your year off to a good start!  20 Chip Challenge is an open ended motivational game that will help elicit many speech or language responses, Check out my FREE and paid versions of this fun and simple game:

 

I am LOVING this activity from Teri and Tiff’s Creative Resources— Prediction Comic Strips.  I can use more materials related to  predicting with my middle/high school kiddos.  They will have fun with this for sure!

This product is designed to help students improve their reading comprehension skills by practicing how to make clue-based predictions.
Each of the 20 comics provides an opportunity for students to make a prediction. All the comics have 5 slides. The first 3 slides have already been created, so the students need to observe the first 3 slides, decipher the key details, and then predict what will happen in the last 2 slides.

 

I can’t believe I didn’t purchase this one yet.  Reading and Responding Interpreting Language and much more by Mia McDaniel is definitely  at the top of my wish list this time around!

The kids will have fun with the text message/iphone theme as we address this all important goal for so many of the students on my caseload.

 

I know I will certainly find more items to add to this list, but theses are just a few of my favorites.

My store will be on sale August 20!  You can get 28% off of anything in my store by using the code BOOST at checkout!!
