Our Favorite Wordless Picture Books in Speech Therapy: Part Two – Episode 37
We believe in the value and benefit of using wordless picture books with your students, so we dedicated another episode sharing more of our favorite wordless picture books with you. As we continue to mention, despite not having any text in them, you can still discuss character analysis, theme, vocabulary, and narrative structure with your students when reading these books. With this being a genre you may not have a lot of on your shelves, in today’s episode, we’re sharing our favorite wordless picture books part two.
Just like in last week’s episode, we’re discussing six more of our favorite wordless picture books to use in speech therapy. Each book is a complete episode and addresses many narrative concepts such as sequencing, structure, grammar, and vocabulary. We also recommend which age group we’d use each book with, along with additional writing activities to use with your students. After these last two episodes, we hope you have found a list of books you’d put on your shelves and use in your speech therapy sessions from our favorite wordless picture books!
