Language Sample Collages from You!
Thank you! A special thank you to all of the SLPs who emailed pictures of their beloved pets to include in collages that we can all use to elicit language samples. It was so much fun to see the variety of who lives with you. I was amazed to find who shares your affection, and I know now to whom you talk to each night after work! These are your
kids. You love them. You feed them. You hug them. And now you share them with us. Thank you.
Because I received so many pictures, I divided the collages I made between this week's post and next week's. So look for your special friend and make them all your special friends.
(A reminder about the importance of taking a language sample: Be sure to refresh yourself about what is necessary to look at when taking a language sample in my Feb. 2 and Feb. 9 posts.)
- Print the following collages.
- Place each one in a protective transparent sleeve or laminate.
- Either the SLP selects one for the Language Sample or the child selects between two.
- Have fun!
Collage #1 features Bubba, Bugsy, Twist, Coconut the fish, and Perry.

Collage #2 features Sonny and Cher, Rocco and Saddle-Up.

Collage #3 features Lucky, Rocco, Foxie (I slipped in a cartoon to ask the child who is NOT real), Trixie, Kiki and Goldie.

Three more collages are coming your way
to assist your kids who have so much to say.
Take a language sample, then figure it out,
you'll have children talking without a doubt.
