A Month of Therapy Using a Nonfiction Article


Listen Later

We’ve reached the next episode in our six-week series about therapy planning across your school-aged caseload here on the SLP Now podcast!

For the last three weeks, we’ve used Dr. Ukrainetz’s five step literacy-based therapy framework to work through a month of therapy planning for three units: a play-based early language unit (slpnow.com/183), a picture book (slpnow.com/184), and a fiction article (slpnow.com/185).

Today, we’re going to take the next step on our therapy planning journey and dig into a non-fiction article, “Wild Calls in the Springtime Sky.”


This unit is ideal for students in third grade and up, or if they have a good mastery of narrative language. It’s a great way to target more expository language!


In the episode, Marisha talks about using literacy-based therapy to target:

  • Grammar and syntax
  • Vocabulary goals
  • Asking and answering questions
  • Producing compound and complex sentences

…and more!


Remember: all of the activities in this unit are language rich, and they provide the perfect context to target almost any goal in your speech therapy sessions—even if you’re working on multiple goals with mixed groups.
