How Do You Use It?! August: Sentence Strips! (linky party)

It is that time again....time for my monthly linky party!!  Check out how I use common objects in my speech room!  Keep reading and view below to see how other SLPs/bloggers use them as well!

This month's object: sentence strips!!  

There are several ways I use sentence strips in my therapy room.  I can use them on post-its, index cards, dry erase boards, on top of worksheets, or even using the following products:


Why use sentence strips?!  They are a great way to encourage expanded utterance length!!  I like to use cloze sentences on them to model how to respond or describe using expanded utterances.  Some samples of teaching the following targets:

• Possessive pronouns: "This is his _____."
• Sequencing/transition words: "First _____" "Finally _____"
• Categorization: "The _____ is a fruit."
• Describing: "The _____ is yellow." "The _______ has a wheel."

I LOVE sentence strips so much, I often include them in my TpT products!!  I often use Boardmaker symbols when I use sentence strips with my nonreaders or poor readers.  Check out below some products that use these sentence strips:

Preposition Picture Scenes (for younger students)

Back To School Early Language File Folder Activities

Cut, Sort, & Glue! Activities for the entire year

I hope you find these ideas helpful!  How do you use sentence strips?!  Stay tuned for next month's post!!
