Pirate themed books, games, and activities for speech therapy and the classroom!
I don’t do a ton of themed therapy but I love a good pirate theme! September is a great month for this theme because September 19 is “International Talk Like a Pirate Day” every year! It’s fun to switch things up and have a theme once in a while to make things new and exciting for you and your students. You can dress up or make a quick treasure hunt with articulation cards around your room!
One of my favorite ways to incorporate themes in therapy is with books! Check your library to see if they have a few pirate books for you to check out and use for the week or month.
PIRATE THEMED BOOKS
The Pirate who Swallowed a Fish
Shiver Me Letters: Pirates ABC
PIRATE THEMED GAMES
Pop the Pirate – This is a popular and versatile toy that I use year-round! You play by putting swords in the slots and one of them will make the pirate pop out of the barrel. It is a great reinforcer during articulation drills or while targeting any goals.
Pirate Talk – I love this game from Super Duper. Target expressive and receptive language goals: sentence repetition, answering questions, following directions, categorizing, inferencing, describing, and social skills.
