Games & Puzzles | Highlights Kids highlightskids.com
These Highlights Hidden Picture Puzzles have been great for expanding on sentences (e.g., “Give me a really good description of where you find the picture so I can click on it. Thanks, I see it, the ‘pencil’ is next to the girl wearing a green shirt on the slide.”). The puzzles are also great for practicing locatives (e.g., next to, up, near, in front of, behind). Also, if you scroll down to “What’s Wrong, Wheat Harvest,” you’ll find a silly picture scene. This is now my go-to icebreaker for elementary school remote initial sessions.
Of course, you can also use the Highlights puzzles as you would any other speech therapy picture scene, targeting several language goals such WH questions, conversation starters, following directions, nouns, pronouns, verbs, inferencing. To learn more about using picture scenes in speech therapy, Speech-Language Pathologist Allison Fors has an excellent blog post on her website “How to Use Picture Scenes in Speech Therapy.”
