Hello! I'm David.
Not him, though we're both Talking Heads (anyone born after 1980 may need to Google the reference)!
I haunt Twitter, looking for free, useful speech pathology practice resources, so you don't need to!

Love these ideas from Lauren for CAS ReST breaks:
Break activities that I used during telehealth delivery of ReST during the recent intensive. 🧵
A thread, mostly so I can find them later/don't forget them, but also because there might be some other #SLPeeps#weSpeechies#slp2B who would find them useful.— Lauren Osborne (she/her) (@speechieLO)

Here's a great idea to make CVC blending practice more fun - though I would add letters to support early literacy:
I found this on Amazon called Pop it figit toys. I usually use pop its for some activities but like these because you can add to it. I would use either white boards, paper, magnets to add the graphemes, but I wanted to share this great find. I also made a template below...

A tip for younger SLPs to make 'those of us of a certain age' feel better about ourselves!
Tip for students going off to college: study 80s/90s pop culture. Particularly Ferris Beuller, Princess Bride, Simpsons seasons 2-5. Your gen x/early millennial profs will try to connect with you through these, and will be confused/sad when you stare blankly at them. Not joking.

When you’re in a bad mood but refuse to stop spreading love and positivity.
