    Thank you!

  170. Brianne L. –

    Such a great themed unit for learning about students especially during distance learning. My students really liked sharing about themselves with their peers.

  171. Krista K. –

    This was a great back-to-school and get-to-know you resource! Hope to use it more next school year, as this year was a bit of a crazy start so I didn’t get to use it as much as I wanted!

  172. Chaya L. –

    I love this resource as a welcome activity in the beginning of the year. It works well for a lot of different ages and grades.

  173. Amber N. –

  176. Darya O. –

    Great bundle for getting to know you activities, versatile and can be used for many targets!

  177. Kathleen B. –

    Excellent variety of activities! The vocabulary sheets are my favorite. I currently have upper elementary and middle school students so some of the activities are too young for my caseload.

  178. Katharine P. –

    Very useful!

  179. Nicole C. –

    Thank you for a great resource!

  183. More Than Words –

    Good resource for the beginning of the year!

  184. Mandie H. –

    I regularly purchase Shannon’s products b/c they are ALWAYS worth the money especially when I can snag them at 50% off!! Evidence-based, excellent visuals and a great topic for the beginning of the school year or any time! Like that her visuals are consistent across products.

  185. Kayla Megan –

    Love this bundle! It targets so much and is very easy to use/implement.

  186. Hillary S. –

    This has been such a great “get to know you” activity with new students and groups!

  187. Kathryn A. –

    Another great resource from Speechy Musings! I used this across my entire caseload at the start of the year, and as this year is constantly changing I have found myself reusing it as my groups and caseload changes (sometimes by the minute).

  188. Lisa J. –

    I like it

  189. Jamie S. –

    I love this packet, and I feel like I’ve only used a fraction of it. This could have easily worked for the majority of my caseload because it’s so thorough.

    I especially like the vocabulary sections, and it worked out great for my language group, as well as homework for my students. I can’t image the time involved to make this, but I really appreciate it!

  190. Susanne C. –

    This is a wonderful and comprehensive resource. It targets a ton of different goals!

  191. LeighAnne D. –

    This was a great resource to use when school opened. Thank you.

  192. Theresa G. –

  193. Theresa S. –

    This resource is amazing!! So many activities! I can’t wait to try more of the theme units!

  194. Jean F. –

    Really nice set that addresses multiple skills. Organized format and the lessons are simple to follow. I just need time to convert these to Kami worksheets to use with my students.

  195. Cheri V. –

    Another beautiful resource from Speechy Musings! This one targets so many different language goals and there’s something in here for so many kids on my elementary caseload!

  196. Emily F. –

    Great way to target all goal types. I loved this resource as I could build my “friend file” for each student and target goals.

  197. Judi F. –

    I keep coming back to this wonderful resource every time I meet a new client – it works so well during my currently teletherapy only sessions. Thanks Shannon for another fantastic resource!

  198. Jatinique L. –

    Highly engaging for my students during distance learning- am planning on using it in person as well! Thank you!

  204. Alysha W. –

    I love this resource. My favourite thing about it is how incredibly versatile it is. I can pull it out for an AAC user, a grade 2 student or a grade 6 student and use it for a variety of goals. I’ve used it to expand sentence length, to increase describing skills, to formulate questions for conversation building and more. I am not usually one to work with themes (I’m just not organized enough) but this is the perfect way to do it! I also use it outside of the theme and it works so well. Can’t wait to purchase more of the themed units!

  205. JP Speech Pathology –

    I have loved using this resources with a few offering clients I support in 1:1 therapy. They especially love tvs describing activities and it allows them
    To structure their responses. This goes way further then your typical about me document. Thanks so much for creating this 🙂

  206. Margaret M. –

    Every fall and every time I have a new student, I break this out. Sometimes I bring it out midway through the year so we can update and it’s so versatile as it can be used for social skills too – as in “Introduce yourself” or “ask your friend what his favorite food is!”

  207. Rosanne Sinatra –

    Great resource – Engaging and age appropriate! Thank you!

  208. arliene R. –

    Very comprehensive theme based resource which is diverse enough to use for a variety of goals. I used it thus far for getting to know a new student in virtual learning; introducing singular and plural body parts and addressing syntax. The visuals are excellent, including clear drawings and photographs.

  209. Celeste S. –

    Great resource! Thank you

  210. Kathryn Jane –

    Thank you!

  211. Rebecca D. –

    All about me is so cute! It really helped my preschoolers express themselves more.

  214. Jennifer P. –

    This is such a great resource. It is a great way to get to know your students and build rapport. I will use this product year after year.

  219. Kaitlin L. –

    Good resource for kids learning to share information about themselves and also beginning of the year activities.

    Great for reducing planning time

  228. Bridgette P. –

    I love this resource! As with other resources from Speechy Musings, this resource is very thorough and covers therapy targets for my entire caseload. I used this resource at the beginning of the school year, with distant and in-person therapy, and at semester again as we came back to in-person learning.

  229. Colleen T. –

    It’s extremely difficult to meet brand new students and work with them, 100% virtually. These great activities not only address speech language skills but allowed me to get to know my virtual students. Thank you!

  230. Billie H. –

    This themed unit is so complete. This year I used it for pretty much the first month of distance learning because I could target all kinds of goals in both groups and individual sessions, but am so looking forward to using it for in-person learning too.

  231. Laura A. –

    Nice variety of activities for the beginning of the year! Love these themed units!

  232. MelanieSLP –

    This was the perfect resource to use for the first few sessions of the year. I got to know my students while being able to jump right into working on their language goals!

  244. Emily M. –

    na

  245. Katherine C. –

    Loved this for back to school!

  247. Angela Boyan –

    My life skills students have difficulty talking about their interests and general biographical information. I’m excited to use this for several sessions to help them make stronger connections with peers.

    Your resources are always well thought out and thorough.

  254. Mary Anne R. –

    There is something in this resource for ALL my students, from pull-out language kids to kids I see in a classroom setting. I especially love the one-sheet vocabulary word lessons and the short paragraphs, which I am able to use with most of my students. The one-sheet language lessons are also wonderful as homework to allow my students to practice targeted skills with their parents.

  255. Rose S. –

    My students were engaged and I enjoyed using this resource.

  256. Kelly Moscicki –

    I used this resource with all level of kids which is great because it is easy to adapt. The skills touched on many of my students main area of deficits.

  267. Norah Breindel –

    This was a fabulous use for starting the school year – easy to prep and use while spending time needed for scheduling and many other non-therapy tasks. I used it for several weeks with ALL of my caseload. I appreciate that the fonts and graphics in this material are not too “young” looking for older students, or older students who are working on earlier developing concepts.

    A great, scaffolded product that you can use for most of the students on your caseload.

  302. Elizabeth B. –

    I love how comprehensive this resource is. The core word work and lower level activities look great, but the ones for older kids were a little bit awkward for them at the beginning of the school year. I would have used this more if my early elementary or AAC caseload was larger.

  303. Katelyn M. –
