I love sales of any kind. Next Monday is the Cyber Monday sale on teachers pay teachers. Jenna from Speech Room News has created a Linky Party to share what SLPs have in their carts. This will be my first site wide sale as a seller. I recently started a store on teachers pay teachers called Speech Gems. I have been a customer for a long time, but when I looked into my current cart it is full of clip art for the first time. I love the work of Educlip. There must be 10 of her items in there.
I am very excited to be a seller. I love everything about Christmas. It has been exciting to make Christmas items. One of my favorite activities is Feed the Reindeer. I use this with articulation groups and phonemic awareness groups. My kids love it, so I usually send it home for them to keep.
One activity that I use with my students who need visual cues to answer questions is interactive books. I created An Adapted Christmas Book for Who and What Questions. I can target vocabulary, sentence formation and answering who and what questions at the same time.
Of course I still love shopping. In addition to all the clip art in my with list, there are two items I want for my therapy sessions. Jenna Rayburn has created a new item Elf Training: North Pole Category Game.

I can't wait to download and prepare this for my students. I think will be a great addition to my annual Christmas scavenger hunt that I do around the building. I think this year I am going to turn the whole thing into an elf training instead of a scavenger hunt. I love Jenna's idea of elf training. After the students complete a task I am going to give them a clue to where the next task is located. I think this is going to be a great addition to my holiday activities.
The final item in my shopping cart is for a new book that I plan to use this winter. Marla Almiron created a book companion for Ten on a Sled that I think will be perfect for my therapy sessions

I am always anxious for the holiday season to begin. Black Friday and Cyber Monday start the season off for me. Happy shopping!
