summer 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.

Thereby stretching their auditory memory, building vocabulary, and descriptive language skills.★ This is a SUMMER version of a best-selling larger resource - Guess the Secret ObjectWhat's included:44-page resourceDigital Version: The game can be played on a computer, iPad, or teletherapy platforms using PDF reader apps.
