Here is a Digital Story that I created using iMovie. Enjoy!
Here is a presentation on MEMEs, using the cloud - based presentation software called Prezi.
Below are a few technology tools that I utilized during therapy.
Word Clouds: For this activity, I used the Tagul to create word clouds using words that were being targeted in therapy. First, the students would practice saying their sounds/words out loud to me. While they were saying the words, I imported the words onto the site. Once the student was done with their set, he/she then picked the layout they wanted to use for their words. We then created the Word Cloud and printed it out for them to take home. I found the site user friendly and I was able to add as many words as I wanted to the list. The only step that took some time, was choosing the layout (there are quite a few choices) and then printing it out. Here is a link to my blog about using this tech. tool: A cloud of words
Talking Images: This was also a fun tool to use, and kept the students engaged. I used Blabberize, an online website where you can upload an image and then make it "talk". I let the students choose what image they wanted to make "talk", searched for the image, and then uploaded it. The students then practiced saying their words, while the site recorded it. (Make sure you have the volume turned up on your computer!). Once the students were done, or the 30 second time limit was up, I saved the creation and let the students listen to it. It was helpful for the students to hear how they sound, saying their target sound in words, and they also enjoyed watching the image "talk". You do need to create an account beforehand, but once you have that set up, you can save your talking images to replay at any time. Here is my blog post review: Making images talk
Smore: an easy way to make an online flyer. I created a simple one on how to make the "L" sound. Here is my blog post where I review this tech. tool: Using Smore
