2020 Summer Series - Beverly Ray at SPA

Since COVID-19 has kept us at home, we are all ready to get our lives back to a new normal. You may be
completely out of ideas by now as to how to both entertain as well as stimulate learning with your kids.
Last summer Speech Pathology Associates posted an 8-week summer language enrichment series and
we will be posting it again starting next week. Don’t forget we will also repeat our drawing for $100
Amazon Gift Card for those who like/share/post. Please post any questions each week that you might
have concerning communication and we will be happy to respond. Since schools have been closed as
well as our clinic, we know that you probably have concerns and questions about what you could be doing.
We look forward to addressing your questions and hearing your comments about the enrichment activities.
Have a great summer!

TIP#7 Summer Language Enrichment Series:

Speech Pathology Associates, Mississippi Summer Language Enrichment Series Following a recipe is a perfect way to work on following sequential directions. This gives an opportunity for new vocabulary words as well as putting things in a certain order. Choose a recipe that has only a few ingredients for a younger child and more advanced recipes for the older. You may even consider using a pre-packaged task such as blueberry muffin mix. Regardless of your snack choice, the main purpose of this activity is to increase vocabulary (i.e., cup, teaspoon, mix, etc.) and sequential language (first, next, then, last, etc.) that other activities don’t allow. To make this a lasting activity to reinforce in a different way, take pictures of the activity at each step. Then your younger children can take the pictures and sequence them in the order they occurred. If this activity proves to be difficult for your child or if you have questions, please email me

TIP#3 Summer Language Enrichment Series : Create present/past/future stories

SPEECH PATHOLOGY ASSOCIATES SUMMER LANGUAGE ENRICHMENT TIP#3 Does your child have difficulty telling a story or relaying to you what has happened? This tip will give you guidance on how to help your child to sequence events. This activity requires you to plan ahead a trip or event. Depending on the age of your child, this activity can be done orally or in writing. Suppose you and your child are going to the zoo on Tuesday. On Monday, you will develop a future tense story before the trip (Tomorrow we will go to the zoo. What do you think we will see? Where do you want to eat?, etc.). A future tense story gives you the opportunity to use future tense language such as ‘will, could, hope/plan to, etc.’ Then on Tuesday while you are involved in your trip, you will be formulating a present tense story and using ‘ing’ words such as ‘are riding/seeing/eating, etc.’ On Wednesday, you will construct a past tense story using words that reflect what has already happened
