Superhero Expressive Language

Who doesn't like superheroes? Whether generic or copyrighted, children of all ages (and genders) enjoy the idea.

Cue the language activities. This fun-filled packet features wh-questions (who, what, when, where, why) - 8 each:

Categories (convergent and divergent):

Sequencing (student will describe the sequence) with a visual guide for first/next/last:

 Compare & contrast - with a Venn diagram:

And safety questions and scenarios:

The safety portion has autobiographical questions (address, birthday, etc.). This includes phone number, which I included reluctantly. Some families still have a house phone, some change cell phone numbers on a regular basis. Ask this question cautiously, and perhaps remind the parents/guardians that children should be familiar with a number they can call.

There is also a follow-up worksheet for home use:

Families should be encouraged to review autobiographical information as well as safety-related scenarios. This is especially true for some children on the Autistic spectrum who have a difficult time differentiating safe vs. dangerous scenarios in the community. 

Interested? Find the packet on Teachers Pay Teachers or Teachers Notebook. 

Are your students struggling with categories and perhaps benefit from more visuals?

Enjoy, and remember - SLPs are language superheroes all day, every day!
