Name: Searching for Home Story Unit
Availability: InStock

Searching for Home is an original wordless picture book created specifically with SLPs in mind! Easily target everything from character description to story comprehension, from core vocabulary to tier 2 vocabulary words, and from simple sentence formulation to sentence combining using JUST ONE BOOK!

My story, Searching for Home, was originally written to be wordless, however it also includes 3 levels of text (plus gestalt language ideas) so it can be adapted for a wide variety of students.

It comes in both color, outline, digital, and printable formats for maximum flexibility! You can print the story again and again, prep it once, or read it digitally on a phone, iPad, or laptop.

There’s 40+ printable and digital activities included that will make planning your therapy sessions around this book quick and easy. Plus a huge information guide (with clickable links straight to activities!) that makes it to find exactly what you need for your students and your caseload.

I’ve also included an informal narrative assessment, a parent handout (with a QR code for families to download the book!), speech sound activities, an interactive book, writing activities, a core vocabulary board with related fringe, tons of visuals, Boom Cards™️, four levels of activities, and so much more.

One of the best parts of this story unit is a 60-page information guide that follows my original Story System to help you create a robust story unit targeting a variety of speech and language therapy goals for nearly any child you’re working with, step-by-step.

The Searching for Home story includes salient story grammar elements and story structure. It can be easily adapted to be longer or shorter – you can tell the complete story in as few as 6 picture scenes. I’ve used it with children as young as 3 years old, with AAC users, with middle schoolers, and more.

Here’s some reasons why other SLPs have loved this resource:

♥ ”I LOVE this resource. It is so engaging, my students adore the story and all the activities keep them motivated as well. Also, for me, I am in love with having everything I need for the story all in 1 place. Most of the time I am jumping around between activities and companions that don’t necessarily completely align with the book.” – Jaclyn C.

♥ ”I was hesitant to spend the money on this resource because it’s just one story. SO GLAD I DID! So many activities AND three levels of the story! I’ve used this for 3 weeks and going now. It’s SO great and all my kids love the story! I’m blown away with just how much I’ve been able to use this resource. I printed them all in color (thanks, Instant Ink!) and put alllll the materials in binders. I’ve filled two binders. The price is a steal. I highly, highly recommend it for all SLPs!” – Lauren V.

♥ ”I’ve bought almost all of your products and I have NEVER been disappointed. The quality is spectacular and I absolutely love the variety of activities included. Thank you so much for also included digital options. I was so excited (even a little overwhelmed!! – in a good way) when I saw how many activities were included. I am a forever-customer!” – SpeakEazySLP
