This deck targets who questions and where questions using community helpers and places around the community.
There’s two separate sections of this deck so you can choose which question type you want to target. There are 13 cards in each section with a total of 27 cards.
Each card includes 6 answer choices at the bottom that you can drag and drop into the sentence above it to answer the “who” or “where” question.
Because these are Boom Cards, they work really well for teletherapy or digital speech therapy. You can read more about Boom cards below or on their website.
