Happy St. Patrick's Day!

How do we celebrate St. Patrick's day in speech? I started by changing our bulletin board to a bright, and inspirational St. Patty's day theme. It really brightened up the speech room!


I found a link on a great speech blog, Speech Time Fun, for a printable book, The Lucky Leprechaun. Lucky visits many places and finds gold! We answered "wh" questions, labeled vocabulary, and practiced our best speech (especially the /l/ sound!). After reading the story, we had our own hunt for gold (easy to change over our winter sensory bin). So much fun!

Another great printable is Have You Seen My Pot of Gold?, by Scholastic. You can find the link here. A leprechaun asks different animals if they have seen his gold, until he finally finds it! We read the story, colored the pages, and retold the story using wooden animals.
