Game boards are always a favorite activity for practicing skills during literacy centers.  Even more fun than a regular game board is a HUGE classroom sized game board!  Kyle (my very talented graphic artist) created these bunny feet to make the perfect game board for celebrating spring and Easter.  She even drew a Start, End and a ”rabbit’s hole” so when a player lands on that space, he’ll have to take two steps back.

So it’s summer!  If you are like me, you start making a master to-do list sometime in the middle of May.  On my summer to-do list is to launch a new blog–Make, Take, Teach 4 Speech– and to give my website a total makeover.  I’m really excited about the new blog.  Prior to taking on the role of a RtI Coordinator/Special Education Curriculum Consultant, I was a school-based Speech/Language Pathologist for over 15 years.  I’m so excited to develop activities for SLPs.  For years, my friend, Jill and I (mostly Jill) have been making games for use in therapy. Well, with this new upcoming venture, I’ve been thinking about how I started blogging just over a year ago.  Prior to February of 2012, I didn’t even know what a blog was!
