🌧️ Why say it’s just “raining” when you can paint a vivid picture with words!

☔️Challenge students to use more descriptive words during conversations & in their writing!

Promote building vocabulary with real-life experiences.

"Vocabulary knowledge... emerges as a prerequisite for successful...reading strategy intervention. Students with low vocabulary knowledge may experience cognitive overload when attempting to apply newly learned reading strategies while simultaneously trying to find out the meaning of multiple unfamiliar words."

Always wonderful to have an opportunity to connect with and support our families!

Caregivers attended our final camp day to observe how to incorporate speech practice into daily book reading, and learn the grounding and gratitude strategies shared by our SSC & SW colleagues. Family engagement is key to speech success!
