Description
Fall speech activities. Looking for an object function card activity? This makes it easy to work on fall-themed vocabulary and makes a fun Thanksgiving speech therapy activity to use in the fall!
These cards make it easy and engaging to work on expressively identifying object functions and receptively identifying object functions.
Have more than just vocabulary word pictures, plus specific goal targets to use with a sensory bin!
This product was designed as a sensory bin activity but can also be used as cards with any game.
✅ WHAT’S INCLUDED
- Vocabulary and object function development
- 18 turkeys/pumpkins to expressively tell object function
- 12 cards to receptively identify object function
Directions
Cut closely around the turkeys and cards, and then laminate if desired for durability.
Hide the cards and turkeys in the sensory bin – I like to place the turkey’s bodies visible.
Have the child select a turkey and ask them: “What is ____ for?” or have them find a receptive card hiding in the sensory bin and answer the question.
The receptive cards are great for non-verbal kids or those first being introduced to object function.
What are sensory bins?
Sensory bins are a tactile experience in containers usually filled with beans, rice, noodles, beads, corn, or sand. In addition to putting in the turkeys, you may put in any toys in which you can discuss the object function of (e.g. mini toy shovel, glasses) or toys that are a motivator. For example, pick a turkey & state the object function, then find a dinosaur hiding in the rice!
