FALL GUESS THE SECRET OBJECT - Auditory memory, comprehension, vocabulary
$ 6
FALL- Guess the Secret Object targets auditory memory, comprehension, and processing skills. Kids love to make guesses while building their listening, critical thinking, reasoning skills, and fall voc
...
vocabulary. For each secret object, the child is categorizing and analyzing information, making inferences, and drawing conclusions.The goal is to make logical guesses and identify all 15 secret objects by listening to the four clues presented one by one through hearing alone. Each of the clues is read aloud by the adult. The clues get increasingly more specific. The game fosters two-way conversation and critical thinking skills.A cue to listen slide is included between each Secret Object. The child listens and the adult reads the clues. Talking about an object before showing it provides ear contact before eye contact, which is critical to growing a child’s brain for auditory skills.Once the secret object is revealed the next activity is for the child to remember and use each of the clues to clearly describe the object in connected speech. Thereby stretching their auditory memory, building vocabulary, and descriptive language skills.What's included:44-page resourceDigital Version: The game can be played on a computer, iPad, or teletherapy platforms using PDF reader apps. Print Version: This resource includes printable game cards.
