Description: I swallowed something silly! What did these silly kids swallow? Use your handy-dandy x-ray machine to see what they swallowed! This fun, play-based articulation activity targets /s/ and /s/blends, but can be used for a variety of language tasks as well! Target /s/ and /s/blends at the word, sentence and conversational level! Targets: Initial /s/ -suit -sailboat -seven -sad face -soap -song -suitcase -soccer ball -saw -sun -sink -pencil -sock -seal -scissors Initial /s/blends -scale -screwdriver -skateboard -skull -sled -smoke -snake -snowflake -snowman -spider -spoon -stamp -stapler -star Medial /s/ & /s/blends -castle -dinoaur -glasses -medicine -motorcycle -muscle -popsicle -recycling bin Final /s/ & /s/blends -bus -chess -dice -disk -dress -grapes -horse -house -lips -mask -mouse -pants -piece -prints -sad face -suitcase -wasp Instructions: 1. Place the character behind the x-ray machine. 2. Reveal what the character swallowed and practice saying the target word. 3. If desired, remove the x-ray machine (drag away) and drag the swallowed item into the sentence strip frame to use in a sentence. 4. Talk about what would happen if certain objects were swallowed, what types of things should/shouldn’t be swallowed, etc. to target in conversational speech. CAUTION: Some stimulus items are hazardous to swallow (e.g., scissors). You may need to discuss with your students things that are/are not appropriate to swallow. Use with your discretion:)
