116: Literacy-Based Therapy Part 3: After Reading Activities

Let’s talk about after-reading activities for speech therapy!    This is the last part of a three-part series all about literacy-based therapy. In the last episode, I covered during-reading activities that you can do to make sure your students are understanding what they’re reading, critically thinking, and taking good notes. In the episode before that, I shared some before-reading activities that would get your students excited about reading and assess their background knowledge.    Stretching out your reading lessons before, during, and after reading is a great way to really dive deep into the text and help your students grasp important elements and concepts.    In this episode of SLP Coffee Talk, we are diving into my favorite activities to do after reading a text. This allows your students to have a more in-depth understanding of what they read and what they learned.    Reading strategies that take place after reading are used to summarize, wrap up, and finalize the information that they have learned or should have learned while reading. We don’t want to teach students that you're done with a book after reading it. We want them to think deeply and learn from it!    After-reading strategies are just as important as the ones you did before and during. This isn’t something that you want to skip over! Make sure to tune in to hear my favorite strategies, ideas, and tools to complete after-reading activities in my speech therapy sessions.   Full show notes available at www.speechtimefun.com/116   Resources Mentioned:  Before-Reading Activities: http://www.speechtimefun.com/114 After-Reading Activities: http://www.speechtimefun.com/115 SLP Elevate: https://www.speechtimefunpd.com/slp-elevate-aug Where We Can Connect:  Follow the Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/slp-coffee-talk/id1497341007 Follow Hallie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/speechtimefun Follow Hallie on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SpeechTimeFun/ Follow Hallie on Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/missspeechie/Subscribe today and get access to my secret podcast filled with my juicy secrets for planning with ease for secondary speech students. 6 quick episodes that you can quickly listen to and feel refreshed and inspired! https://speechtimefun.com/secondarysecrets
