For each secret object, the child is categorizing and analyzing information, making inferences, and drawing conclusions.Ideal for: Listening and Spoken Language, Deaf & Hard of Hearing, Speech, ELA, Teletherapy, Distance Learning, Digital - Digital and PrintThe 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.★ This is a WINTER version of a best selling larger resource - Guess the Secret Object★★The vocabulary in this resource is the same that is found in Listen For Inferences of the WINTER Listen Search & Find game.What's included:44-page resourceDigital Version: The game can be played on a computer, iPad, or teletherapy platforms using PDF reader apps.

What are “endonyms”This is a story to help children/students who wear hearing aids understand why they may go to the doctor and/or ENT more often than others. The story can be read for comprehension. It teaches new vocabulary and creates a wonderful language opportunity for students to better advocate for themselves at school, home, and the doctor/ENT office. This story was written with younger children and their families and older students who continue to come to school with blocked hearing aids and do not use an interpreter for language access.Service Activity for EI-ECSE Families & Home VisitsFor any family, this story can be an important conversation starter, or reminder, to understand the language impact of even partially clogged hearing aids for their kid(s) who are not using signs. This can be demonstrated to parents by using a listening tube when their child’s hearing aid is plugged in and cleaned, and then having them listen again to the difference in clarity of language coming through the hearing aid to their child’s brain.Story Printable OptionPrint each two-page spread in landscape mode OR - Print a two-page spread but cut apart pages to show 1 page at a time.
