  1. Dana W. –

    Great product . Love that it allows the students to make choices.

  2. Sweet Speech Suite –

    Perfect teletherapy resource!

  3. The Speech Source –

    This was a great resource to use during a live session, and then I shared it on the student’s account so he could practice afterwards.

  4. Empowering Speech Services –

    Great resource!

  5. Amy T. –

    Another great resource! My students loved all of the animals and the pictures were super motivating for them. Thank you!

  10. Shannon P. –

    Loved this product!

  11. Patricia C. –

    I use these cards with kids who are learning basic WH- questions. Some of the pictures I find are not as familiar to the kids (like bank teller) and the choice may be too many to choose from sometimes. It would be cool if we could chose the field of # for answer choices. Overall, it’s a great product like all your other resources.

  12. Lindsay R. –

    This resource has been wonderful to target wh- questions with my students on the autism spectrum. It helps teach what and where questions in a clear, creative, and engaging way.

  13. Alexandria C. –

    Just used this resource during one of my sessions. You can build upon each sentence by asking questions about the different locations animals live and questions about the animals in general. Highly Recommended!!

  14. Stacey D. –

    Great set of Boom cards!

  15. Granting Communication –

    Your boom card releases have been a life saver during teletherapy!!! Thank you for all you are doing.

    No prep, easy to use and understand!

  67. Tara J. –

    Loved this, so simple to use but also so helpful!

  68. Madeleine M. –

    Fun, engaging resource for distance learning! Cute and enjoyable for kids, but the main focus is still on explicit teaching of places and objects/animals for answering where and what questions.

  69. Jessica W. –

    I love the format of the boom cards so students can make a sentence. I did need to do some pre-teaching to show what was expected.
    I will also add that some of the vocabulary is a little high for very small kiddos, such as the word: wetlands. Wetlands is great for 2nd graders who do an entire until on habitats, but it is not familiar to much younger students.
    Overall, it’s a great product with good visuals.

  70. Samantha V. –

    Super cute! Helpful for teaching how to answer ‘what’ and ‘where’ questions.

    I downloaded and explored this resource to use in future teletherapy sessions for my students. From my own exploration, it seems like a great resource that I definitely think will be helpful for my students. If in person learning takes place this fall (2020) I think I will also use it with my older language students and ELL students to assist in teaching curriculum based vocab.
