Description

Are you looking for a way to simplify your therapy planning? Do you need a resource that seamlessly adapts to mixed groups, individual sessions, or social skills groups? Barrier games are just what you need!

Enhance your speech therapy toolkit with barrier games! This printable activity is designed to elevate speaking and listening skills in speech therapy, ESL classes, special education, and beyond. Barrier games address a common challenge many SLPs face: finding adaptable materials that cater to diverse learning needs and objectives.

Barrier games are a therapy tool that transforms the way you approach language goals, making learning an interactive and enjoyable experience for students. Perfect for mixed groups, helping to generalize concepts, and works great in social skills groups.

With a focus on both expressive and receptive skills, these barrier games aid in developing crucial speaking and listening skills like giving and following directions. It’s an engaging way to enhance social skills, basic concepts, vocabulary, categorization, sentence formation, and storytelling. 

➜ Want to streamline therapy planning?
➜ Want to utilize more open-ended materials that can be used to work on multiple goal areas?
➜ Need resources for mixed groups, individual sessions, or social skills groups?

✅ WHAT’S INCLUDED:

  • Beach scene with 15 separate pictures
  • Treasure map scene with 13 separate pictures
  • Mermaid scene with 14 separate pictures
  • List of directions to give with each scene (targeting concepts below)
  • Black and white versions for an ink-saving option

TARGET:

  • Vocabulary: e.g., Put the sandcastle on the beach.
  • Adjectives: e.g. colors, size
  • Spatial concepts: e.g. on, in, under, below, next to, between
  • Following multi-step directions
  • Sequential directions: e.g., Before you put the ball in the water, put the sun in the sky.
  • Social skills: e.g. Giving and receiving instructions, asking questions to clarify instructions.

HOW TO PLAY:

Give everyone playing a scene and set of pieces. Set up a barrier between players (e.g., file folder). One person (clinician or student) arranges all their pieces on the scene and then gives directions to other player(s) on where to place the items. The purpose of the game is to have matching scenes at the end.

You can put sticky tack on each piece so it will stick to the scene – or simply just place on the scene. Barrier games are also commonly played on a magnetic surface. You can play on cookie sheets and place pieces on a thin, sticky magnet if you wish.

BUNDLE & SAVE!
Grab even more barrier games when you purchase the Barrier Games Mega Bundle! With over 20 barrier games included, you’ll get fun and exciting themes for the school year.

 

 

SLPS AND EDUCATORS LIKE YOU SAID…

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“I love the barrier activities you created! My speech students really like having their own “treasure map” and all the fun pieces to add to the scene. After a bit of prep, I have 4 sets that I’ve used for sequencing, basic concepts, following directions and describing activities. 3 years and still going strong! Thank you for this resource.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“I have used this over the years with so many students. Sometimes as a center, sometimes as a 1-1 activity to assess their ability to follow directions and take multi-step instruction. This is one i often use before the first set of Parent teacher interviews.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“So many different ways to use this resource and adapt for different students! Love that it comes with pages of suggestions for instructions – it makes prep and contingency modification during sessions so much easier!”
