1/22/10- Lily had  a cub today! I was watching the live feed with some students and we were lucky enough to see and hear the cub!!!  There is a clip on Youtube showing this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBNtANbW5vE  1/19/10~ I am adding a new link under Themes- Winter. It is a link to a bear den in Ely MN. It has a live web cam and the bear is expected to have her cubs any day. It might be a great way to talk about hibernation.

1/2/2010~ I will start putting dates before titles & materials as I add them so you can find the newest additions.

11/09~I am starting to upload materials from my files. These can be identified by ** behind the titles.                   

10/09~Welcome! I started this site to share a variety of links I have found on the web.  Hopefully these links will help students (along with their parents) improve their speech and language skills. I also hope other speech language pathologists will find great ideas, materials and resources to use.
