PLUS SPRING SPECIALS ARE HERE!

Enjoy more Fun MARCH FREEBIES this month!
The month is moving quickly. If you haven’t explored the **March SLP Collaboration** yet, there’s still time to check out the free articulation and language activities before March wraps up. You can still **pick and choose or grab them all**. **FYI I created the Caterpillar Categories Resources - if you read the Hungry Caterpillar, you will love this resource!**

Speech Moments: Cariboo and Ned’s Head have been my 2 games last week. I’ve been reviewing student goals. Annual Review meetings are coming up soon! I use my informal artic screener(printable is free on TPT - there is also a PowerPoint version), and WH Question Hierarchy . IT’S WOMEN’S MONTH THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO START CELEBRATING YOURSELF!

I’m also excited about speaking at the online Apraxia UK Conference in May - Child Apraxia of Speech A Global condition. I will be sharing what has shaped my Apraxia experience over the years. The Van Riper approach in the 70’s was so restrictive - starting with Sounds, then Syllables, etc. In my first job I encountered several children with Apraxia and pursued my own techniques which I still use today!! (It’s been updated several times!) WHAT DO YOU FEEL IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE YOU ENCOUNTER TODAY? Pop me an email with your thoughts: ricki@preschoolspeechieplus.com

Watch my video below about 50 years as an SLP!

I updated 9 **Favorite Speech Strategies That Work . The NYU STRIVE FRAMEWORK has been added!** I wanted to simplify terminology of all the varied approaches! It can get overwhelming at times - it is not cookie cutter either. Every child has different needs. I utilize a variety of techniques and assess ongoing progress. As a therapist, it's crucial for me to explain a child’s motor speech disorder to parents & staff in a way that’s easy to understand—KISS (Keep It Simple SLP”s!). Ricki’s personal comments are included with each strategy.

All FREE RESOURCES are on my website in the PS+ Store or on TPT. I hope you find them useful! If there are other resources or checklists you are looking for, I am happy to add more to my website!. Check out TPT and MY RESOURCES for practically any checklist you may need. If you would like a PDF with links please email me at ricki@preschoolspeechieplus.com . (FYI adding more than 1 item to your cart can be a little tricky - when you add first free item, after you click on purchase, arrow back to add another item…it will say “adding”. You can keep adding product this way. When you click on continue, it will take you to checkout.)

One other important bit of info about Updated Products - I am often updating my products and so are many other companies! To find these updates….1. Go to My purchases (upper right hand corner) 2. Click on Recently purchased and scroll down to RECENTLY UPDATED. Under View Receipt it will show you date when you last opened the file and date when it was last updated. I recently updated several covers!
