Homework
is an important and necessary part of speech and language therapy. It
helps to remind students of the skills they are working on in therapy,
and it gives them the opportunity to practice those skills in their
everyday environment - and that's where they'll ultimately be using
them the most!
Your
child will usually be given speech and language homework once a week,
and the assignment is due on the date at the top of the page. Please
sign each assignment so that I know you've reviewed the homework with
your child. And if you have a question or comment, just jot me a note
right on the paper!
Homework
sheets will be placed and kept in your child's speech and language
folder, so it is very important that your child brings the folder to
every speech and language session. I think it's a good idea to keep
folders in schoolbags so that it goes home for practicing and is in
school on Speech Day. Desks are not good places to put folders, as they
can easily get lost and buried there. Please do not throw old
assignments away - they can be a great review later on in the year!
We
all know that practice makes perfect! Therefore, it is important to
practice the skills in the homework assignment as often as possible.
Even five minutes a day of review can make all the difference in the
world! |
