Below are suggestions on how to expose someone to the words in this lesson. Suggestions for one-, two-, and three-word target phrases are given. As always, show the learner how to find these words (model) as you are interacting. Respond naturally when the words are spoken. This is how he/she will learn what the words mean. For example say: "My car is going up/slow. Now it is going down/fast. Oh no, crash!” Model the words in bold. In general, make lots of comments about what you are doing and ask fewer questions. The bullet point under the initial phrase has phrases that can be modeled.
Have your student write their own book using the included template. This pdf file has fillable text boxes. If the device has the capability for computer emulation, the student can use their device to complete each sentence. If not, you can fill in the text boxes for them.
Have them read their story to the class or a friend when they are finished.
Play the Cars Bingo game that is included with this lesson plan. Have the student begin by listening for a colored car and then identifying it on their game board. They can then call out the phrase on their device before they can put their marker on the square. Another way you can play is to have students take turns calling out the different colored cards.
Can-Do Cards are fun, motivational activities the entire family can do to help your child improve their communication skills. Most activities will fit nicely into your daily family routines.
