    I found this resource to be very helpful with distance learning. I used some of the annotation features to cover up some of the answers to make it more challenging for students after they practiced a few with the word bank available. It works great!

  29. Nicole Slough –

    I felt these were appropriate for my lower students. Will have to get feedback from parents on how it worked.

  30. Marti F. –

    There aren’t very many good resources for working on language skills using text. I have kids with a variety of goals using text as the resource. This is a good option for distance learning. The paper resource has both the matching the question and answer and identical narratives with no answers available to the child. It would be nice to have cards with no matching answers to increase the difficulty level.

    Great practice for identifying key points to answer WH questions.

    great resource

  69. Debbie P. –

    I thought this worked well for distance learning. Well thought out and kids enjoyed it.

  70. Miss Gins –

    Great for distance learning!

  71. Communication Essentials –

    I really like this resource and his has great stimuli. It can be a bit visually cluttered if your student has difficulty with that, or if they are accessing your teletherapy session with a small screen. It works best on a laptop screen, and has some great passages included.

  72. Laura Moyer –

    It was so helpful to have a resource that mirrored a skill we were working on when schools abruptly closed. Using a familiar resource in digital form was a great transitional tool for both my groups an me!!

  73. Kelli W. –

    overpriced and underused

  74. Kimberly H. –

    My students enjoy this!

  75. Heather M. –

    This resource is excellent for teletherapy! My students are really engaged!

  89. Gretchen G. –

    This activity was easy to use and an engaging way to target a variety of skills. Nice resource!

  90. Suzanne C. –

    My students enjoyed the short stories. We read them aloud in shared screen and for some students I would stop sharing screen to see if they could answer the questions without visuals.

  91. Allison C. –

    Great resource for wh questions!

  92. Julie K. –

    My students used this with me over zoom during whole class meetings. The students would take turns reading the passage then we would answer the questions together. It was short enough to keep their attention but had enough information to make it interesting. I could see myself using it for progress monitoring in the future.

  93. Michelle G. –

    This is a great resource to use to address reading comprehension and answering “wh” questions. Students always enjoy using interactive Boom cards. I appreciate that there are both narrative and non-fiction texts.

    This is a great resource for my older students who are working on their comprehension skills.

    I went through this resource on my own before using it when school starts, I think this resource will be very useful to use in my groups in school and in my remote learning sessions whenever that happens! Thank you for putting all of this together!

  102. Aimee M. –

    This has been a fantastic resource for my caseload, both in person and in teletherapy sessions. I love the visual aids over the questions to assist with learning and retention of what each “wh” question is looking for.

  103. Christy P. –

    Great resource! It worked well for my younger junior high students for distance learning.

  104. Kendall L. –

    Great resource for reading comprehension and answering questions based on a story.

    Love this material on so many levels!

    Boom Cards are fabulous for distance learning, and the content in this particular item was exactly what I needed for comprehension.

  112. Cait Beam –

    Great product!

  113. Christy T. –

    I used your printable version of this resource last Spring during school closures and found it super helpful. I’m so glad you made a Boom Card version for distance learning! I like the options to provide answer choices that the student can click and move in order to answer the questions! Thank you. Love your resources!

  114. Sara S. –

    Another great literacy-based activity to do with students who struggle with language comprehension. The texts were fun and kept the students engaged in distance therapy.

    Great resource

  116. Kimberly L. –

    This is great for WH questions!

  119. Amanda D. –

    This resource is great for making the connecting between auditory stories and written stories. My students who have auditory comprehension goals have benefitted from the multiple choice options.

  121. Maya A. –

    During social distancing this has been wonderful for my older elementary kiddos to work on answering WH comprehension questions.

  122. LeighAnne D. –

    I enjoyed using this with mixed groups. Thank you

  123. Specialized Instruction –

    Good Lord, you saved me LOL….made my life so much easier!

    Great set of Boom Cards for upper elementary

  125. Kristin Russo –

    Great Resource!

  126. Kellie H. –

    I love that there are answer choices that the student can choose to answer the questions!

  127. Taylor Ballard –

    I have used this resource with one student so far, but he has been engaged and likes the ability to see the answers when answering the questions. It would be cool to have like a level 1 and level 2. If there was the ability to hid the answers or write the answers in for level 2 that would be helpful! Overall, this has been a great resource.

  128. Breanna C. –

    LOVE THIS

  129. Alyssa D. –

    Great resource!

  130. Samantha C. –

    I’m always looking for resources to use with my older students (3rd-5th) and this was definitely one I’m glad I found!

  131. Maria W. –

    This resource is very engaging and I cannot wait to continue with it. My students are very excited.

    Helpful resource to use during tele-therapy!

  135. MICHELLE B. –

    This is a great resource to have a variety of stories on hand during virtual learning. The answer choices are beneficial for my kids who need them. Thank you!

  137. christy V. –

    Great, engaging product! Thank you!

  138. Julie S. –

    It was a great way to target a specific goal.

  139. Deanna M. –

    Loved these boom cards and so did my students! Thank you!

  140. Shelby K. –

    During distance learning exercises, this resource has been extremely beneficial in aiding me in targeting my patient’s expressive language goals, specifically “wh” questions!

  141. Sara L. –

    The choices help my students to process the question

  142. Alyson T. –

    So helpful to use with distance learning. The visuals are so important and the stories are perfect for my language impaired students.

  143. Heather W. –

    This is another fantastic resource for distance learning!

  144. Sherese J. –

    Excellent Resource

  145. Shelby V. –

    This has been so great to have a quick, no prep activity for virtual therapy! My students have seemed to enjoy it also!

  146. Rose’s Speech Therapy –

    I really enjoyed this purchase.

  147. Michelle R. –

    This resource has been a lifesaver for my older elementary students. I like that there are no pictures, because it was the next step of difficulty that I needed for a handful of my students. The visual on the bottom of each paragraph is perfect and the answer bank has helped them feel successful on a task that they cannot handle independently.

  148. Allison B. –

    Great resource for distance learning!

  149. Courtney B. –

    Great for teletherapy with older students! I love the images that are included in each questions blank! Good amount of passages included! Love that we can use the answer choices or not use them!

  150. Emily M. –

    This was a great lesson for using on my SmartBoard. My students were very engaged, because they enjoy using the SmartBoard vs. completing a worksheet or just talking through an activity together. A great, comprehensive activity per usual! Thanks!

  151. Communication Blooms –

    My students have done really well with this. Having the answer word bank is good for the younger students, but for some of the older students it made it super easy for them and didn’t challenge them quite enough.

  152. Amy G. –

    I love this activity. My students enjoy it too.

  153. Sarah G. –

    This is my favorite product to target language! It is so hard to find stories to use but this has multiple therapy sessions in one place. My students love hearing the “ding” when they get questions right.

  154. Erin T. –

    Love that it has narrative and non-fiction options. My kids love the non-fiction and learning something new! Great resource!

  155. Teresa Stiles –

    I always need more short story activities! This was perfect for distance learning. Especially if the remote access was working!

  156. Olivia C. –

    I love this product so much ! I have basically been spending all of my money on speechy musings products LOL

  157. Tracey B. –

    Thank you.

  158. Kate V. –

    This activity has been GREAT to use with my students working on listening and reading comprehension. I do wish there was an option to HIDE the answers so my students could work on returning to the passage to find the answers when needed. However, for what it is, it’s fantastic and it worked extremely well for distance learning, and now in person learning.

  159. Kris G. –

    Students appeared to like the stories. It would be nice if answers had the option of being hidden, but overall, it is a great resource. It is used for both online and in-person learning.

  160. Amanda P. –

    Your products never disappoint. Thank you!

  161. Remy S. –

    Great activity to keep students engaged!

  162. Sherry M. –

    I love these for distance learning and they have been a go to resource. I love how the questions are broken down and that children get a choice between fiction and non fiction. I also look forward to using these in person.

  163. Kayla B. –

    Perfect for small group independent work! Very challenging!

  164. Jennifer G. –

    Great resource

  165. Gabrielle B. –

    Fabulous resource

  166. Speech City –

    This has been a great resource for my virtual students working on comprehension skills. Love that there are both non-fiction and narrative texts.

  167. Kayla H. –

    Great adaptation into a Boom Card. I love it!

  168. Mary C. –

    It worked well with my student and was engaging.

  169. Carrie L. –

    Great resource. I just wish that you could hide the answers somehow to make it harder for my student who reads well.

  170. Alexis M. –

    My patients loved this activity! Great for in person or teletherapy.

  171. Kyla Z. –

    Such a good skill to practice!

  172. Skye W. –

    I love ALL of her resources, but having them in BOOM card format makes my life SO much easier!!! Great resource AS ALWAYS!

  173. J G. –

    Great digital resource for answering “wh” questions after reading short text.

  174. Kimberly P. –

    I loved using this one on one with remote students.

  175. Tiffany H. –

    This is a great resource, especially with it offering both fiction and non-fiction. I really like using this with my kiddos who stutter, they are great short paragraphs to work on smooth speech. It it also been great for helping with my kiddos who need help in the comprehension area.

  176. Sheryl D. –

    Love this resource for my lower level middle school students and students on the autism spectrum

  177. Lauren S. –

    You always make my favorite products, thank you!

  178. Tara Walsh –

    I use this activity all the time and have recommended it to my fellow SLPs in school. The graphic organizer is great! Sometimes I read the stories aloud to my students, ask them comprehension questions and then have them answer again using the graphic organizer.

  179. Anna S. –

    This is a great activity for reading comprehension and answering questions. Love the choices to scaffold learning. Thank you!

  180. Judi D. –

    This has been a good long distance interactive resource for my kids who have difficulty with wh?

  181. Crystal B. –

    I use this during e-learning with my students with wh-question goals. I love that the visual strategy guide is right on the slide so that I don’t have to use a separate visual. This is one of my go-tos because narrative text and non-fiction texts are used!!

  182. Jessica M. –

    This is a great way to work on reading comprehension and answering WH-questions! My students enjoy being able to drag the correct responses into the box.

  183. Melissa D. –

    My in person kiddos love resources that they can use on the computer. Thank you for making these!

  184. Nancy the SLP –

    The graphic organization of this resource and the explicit teaching of “wh” questions is just what I needed for my students with ASD. Thanks!

  185. Brianna B. –

    This was a great resource for my fourth grader with autism. This is a great resource to keep him engaged in his work while working on his reading comprehension skills.

  186. Laura O. –

    This resource was helpful to use during distance learning.

  187. Jill S. –

    Such a great resource for students moving past the picture scenes. I like that I’m able to use this with all my learners – distance and in-person.

  188. FELICIA E. –

    Love this resource!!

  189. Bilingual Speech and Language –

    I love, love this product!! It is easy and engaging for various students. My students with cognitive disabilities were able to use it with minimal assistance, so it made planning easier for me.

  190. Joanna B. –

    I use this resource every week with my students who are working on comprehension- I love that is has nonfiction and fiction to choose from

  191. Cynthia O. –

    My student was able to complete most of the questions by choosing one of the answers below. She seemed to improve as we went along. It would be best for students with a reading level of 3rd grade or above.

  192. renee T. –

    I have many students who are working on answering wh- questions. This resource is a great way to practice formulating and responding using complete sentences. Love that a digital component has been added, which I have used, as well.

  193. Cassidy G. –

    Thank you so much for this great resource! I love the helpful visuals in the table!

  194. Amber S. –

    Hard to find good reading comprehension activities for distance learning, this was great!

  195. Amy H. –

    Many of my students need practice with Wh questions, this has been helpful.

  196. SLPAideen –

    I love this resource! My only wish was that there was an option to hide the answers… Some of my students need the visual supports and others would be okay without it since they have the text to visually reference. I would still recommend this for any SLP!

  197. Jacqueline I. –

    Great resource

  198. Carli L. –

    Great resource for workshop rotations.

  199. Hannah K. –

    Using with students that are online/distance learning. Easy to use resource, well done

  200. Sarahanne T. –

    This was especially helpful for older students as they found the setup really engaging!

  201. Evelyn P. –

    This is a resource I continue to use it weekly. I pull it out as a warm up or toward the end of a session, so it lasts! The written cues provide just enough help for those who need it. The short story are just long enough and interesting enough to keep students focused.

  202. Alice Wong –

    Great product

  203. Amber A. –

    I LOVE that this includes nonfiction texts as well as fiction! What a great resource for teletherapy!

  204. Alexis E. –

    This is a great resource for targeting WH questions and literacy. My only suggestion would be to have a way to cover up the answers because some of my students were just reading the answers not actually answering the questions! A great go-to resource!

  205. Teri B. –

    I use this with my language teletherapy students. It’s very helpful for students who need visual and/or verbal cues to answer questions.

  206. Kelsey B. –

    Great resource for teletherapy.

  207. Janel M. –

    Great resource!

  208. Lana M. –

    This is a great way to practice comprehension and answering wh questions!

  209. Dana C. –

    good

  210. Laura N. –

    This activity provides great print support for my readers. I used this to teach my students how to use the text to answer WH questions.

  211. Kathleen A. –

    Great resource!!

  212. Heather Miller –

    This resource is so good for WH questions and simple story retell. I love the passages and the good questions that are asked. One thing that might be nice is having an option that allows you to hide the answers to the questions – it would add a whole new level of difficulty.
    This is a great resource. Thank you!

  213. Taste Buds –

    I love this resource! I use it all the time. So easy to use and the passages are not too short but still have good content in them.

  214. Julia D. –

    So cute, I needed this!

  215. Kaitlyn D. –

    Perfect for working on comprehension with my students during distance learning.

    This is an amazing product! I am providing telepractice services remotely from home and the students are always engaged in this activity. I use it regularly as a part of each session with grades 2 and 3 and it is so helpful. I had my principal drop in to observe and he noted that he liked how I gave the students a choice of narrative or non fiction and how the technology allowed me to support the students in an activity that tied in with core curriculum and literacy. The students loved being able to choose (they chose to learn about orcas!). Thank you!

  217. Cassandra S. –

    Great resource!

  218. Connie M. –

  228. cinthia J. –

    This is a great resource! It is easy to use and includes multiple opportunities to practice.

  229. Krystal R. –

    Great resource to review what type of answers go with each wh- question!

  230. Rosemary R. –

    This is a good resource for students to work with longer paragraph text, but who still need significant supports such as an answer bank.

  231. Erin W. –

    Thank you. This was engaging for my students.

  232. Melissa P. –

    Great activity for students of older ages that require the necessary supports to be able to answer questions.

  240. Alissa B. –

    Great resource!

  241. Emily Hughes –

    I thought this resource was great. I wish there was a bit more differentiation in the stories to target different levels, but overall the students were engaged in the activity. I like how the answers were a little scattered so they had to focus more and find the answer.

  242. Monica S. –

    Great visuals! Thank you!

  243. Alison H. –

    These are great for my speech students who are virtual and my in-person students

  244. Nancy B. –

    This is one of the best activities I have purchased. It is great for scaffolding WH questions from paragraphs. Students enjoy the stories. I like that it includes fiction and nonfiction. The included visual supports for question types are very helpful for students.

  245. Carly D. –

    These were perfect activities for my students while distance-learning that needed a little higher listening con tent. The only thing is I wish there was a version that didn’t have the multiple-choice answers to promote independent answering without cues. No big deal though! Thank you so much for this.

  246. Laura S. –

    A simple resource to use and my students found it a great way to practice finding information in a text quickly.

  247. Tori J. –

    I have used this resource so much and have still not used all of the short stories. This is a resource I continue to go back to on a weekly basis to use with my clients working on comprehension.

  248. SydneyE –

    Such a great resource! The topics are engaging and my student’s love the visual cues. I do wish there was an option to hide the multiple choice answers to make it a bit more challenging but it’s still a great tool.

  249. Hildy G. –

    This is a great resource to use virtually with a student, exactly what I was looking for, thank you!

    Very engaging

    I like how I have never seen any errors on Speechy Musings work.

  253. Kristen N. –

    Great resource to target my students goals.

  254. Carissa F. –

    I love everything Speechy Musings creates – but this is a great, quick go to resource for online therapy (no-prep!). Works great for targeting WH-questions and reading comprehension goals.

  255. Rising Sun Speech –

    Thank you for this resource! I absolutely love it!

  256. Katherine Routen –

    I have used this resource already so many times with my students that struggle with reading comprehension. This is a great resource for those that are not quite independent with answering wh- questions and need answer choices.

  257. Sarah P. –

    This resource has been invaluable during remote learning.

  258. Shireen G. –

    Super appropriate for middle school clients! Love how easy it was to plan and execute therapy with this!

  259. The Speech Room LLC L. –

    This is worth every penny! Great for student struggling with reading comprehension. A must have for teletherapy session with Gen Ed students.

    I love the format of this product! Great for virtual learning!

  261. Michele S. –

    Great resource!

  264. Nicolette K. –

    I liked this resource and enjoyed the stories that were included.

  265. Susan C. –

    I used this activity once with a second grader. It was very engaging and we were able to cover many of her IEP goals for comprehension and vocabulary. Thank you!

  266. Chelsea N. –

    Love the drag and drop feature – the picture cues are great and I love the non-fiction options! I’ve been able to tie these in with themes with my social skills groups that have lead to great conversations – we just used the zoo paragraph, watched a zoo live cam, and practiced conversational turn taking and asking about favorite animals, etc. Thank you!

  267. Nicole N. –

    These Boom Cards were easy to use with my distance learners and effective!

  268. Carla W. –

    Wonderfully organized and clear layout…THANKS!

  269. Kristin Gomez –

    I loved this!

  270. Brittany D. –

    This has been so helpful and useful with so many of my groups! I definitely recommend adding this resource to your collection!

  271. Denise B. –

    I have used this with groups who are working on WH that need the support of being able to see the answers. When I use it for distance learning, I can black out some of the answers to make it more difficult for groups that are ready for this. It would be great it there was a way to cover or “hide” certain responses or all responses to all a level of difficulty. I have been able to achieve this by blacking out answers. I have to do this quickly though, so the kids do not see the answers first. So, a faster way to conceal answers would be great. I still use it all the time and have found it very useful.

  272. Valentina P. –

    Great resource, the content is great and the layout of the material itself is easy to understand. My students enjoy being able to place the correct item over each question.

  273. Mary J. –

    I just discovered Boom cards and my kids love getting on and “playing” . They are great.

  274. Sheetal Nair –

    Good resource!

  275. Elizabeth V. –

    I am so glad I found these! They are challenging enough for my older students and the wh-question review is very helpful for them.

  276. Lauren G. –

    I literally use this everyday with my in-person and remote students! I love how diverse the texts are in topic and content. Thank you! So easy to use!

  277. Allison H. –

  292. Wendi W. –

    This is a good resource for helping students who struggle with answering WH-Questions.

    A great low-prep option! It’s nice that the questions and responses are already there for me and my students. So far, they have been engaged with this resource.

  294. Sandra Ramirez –

    Great way to work on comprehension, responding to questions given choices, identifying unfamiliar vocabulary, and retelling short stories!

  295. Carolyn S. –

    A great low-prep activity! I used for retelling and working on vocabulary as well.

  315. Your Words Matter –

    My students really like using the iPad and Apple Pen as opposed to pencil and paper, this is a great way to get them engaged!

  316. Noble Speech Therapy –

    I wish there was an option for fill in the blank answers as well as the multiple choice. Some of my kids just figure out the answer using the question word- not because they actually knew the answer. BUT I just cover up the answers, so I get around it.

  317. Cassandra W. –

    Excellent resource that I’ve used during so many sessions!

  318. Tammy Agria –

    I purchased this for one student in particular and it has more than delivered. Using this resource, I was able to show the student mastered the skill, not just the previously used stories.

  319. TheSpeechSpace –

    This is a great resource for my many students working on answering wh- questions from short stories! The stories are interesting and the wh- questions are already ready to go! I appreciate that there are non-fiction texts too, since some of my students struggle more with these texts.

  320. Katherine K. –

    I love that the passages have the WH questions visuals.

  321. Synergize Learning Resources –

    My student really enjoyed the format of this activity, and even requested we do more of it! I enjoyed that there were numerous texts, reduced my prep time dramatically.

  323. Nanette C. –

    Great resource and is one of my go to’s.

  334. Jody F. –

    Love this resource!

  335. Martha R. –

    Enjoyed all of the stories- I wish there was a way to hide some of the answers as some of them get answered by default as being the last answer choice!

  336. Jamie H. –

    This was a great resource to assign my online kiddos through Google classroom. We loved the instant feedback. Overall, very decent resource! Will continue to utilize in the classroom.

  337. Megan C. –

    Great!!

  338. The Confident Communicators –

    use it weekly

  339. Amber Caddy –

    This was a good way to work on answering “wh” questions from stories with older students.

  340. River City Speech –

    This has been a helpful resource for teaching comprehension. We practice breaking down the question to figure out what it is actually asking, searching for evidence in the text, and then answering the question. I do wish there was a version that had no answer choices, but I just use annotation tools onscreen to cover them up.

  341. Lauren P. –

    This is a wonderful resource to use when teaching ‘wh’ questions from short narratives. My students found the short stories engaging.

  342. LaRita R. –

    I have used this boom lesson several times and it’s so helpful with the visual cues to help the student know what box the response belongs in and as they level up you can remove the cues. It’s a great group activity on the smart board

  343. Elizabeth B. –

    Love the paragraph topics and the visuals to assist students. I have to break it down to 2-3 sentences at a time for many of my students, but we add length ask their skills grow.

  344. Sunny Side Up Speech –

    Wonderful resource! Everything from Speech Musings is amazing!

  345. Raquel R. –

    Love the product. I have been using this with students at many different ability levels. My students also really like that the resource has picture cues to help.
