Description: Build vocabulary and critical thinking skills with this structured word analogies deck. Targeting semantic relationships in speech therapy helps students develop a deeper understanding of word meaning through reasoning and language use (rather than rote memorization). This deck targets analogies across 4 clearly scaffolded levels, making it easy to meet students where they are. You’ll get a mini-lesson and 80 practice cards (20 cards per level) to systematically build understanding of word relationships. The teaching lesson uses clear explanations, visuals, and examples to explain what an analogy is and how to complete one. Then, use the clickable menu to jump to the level that’s just right for each student: 📸 Picture Analogies: Choose from a set of images to complete an analogy. 🔤 Word Analogies: Complete analogies by selecting a word (e.g., Cat is to kitten as dog is to ___). 🧩 Phrase Analogies: Complete analogies by selecting a phrase (e.g., Syrup is to pancake as ___). 🚀 Advanced Phrase Analogies: Work through higher-level concepts (e.g., Uncomplicated is to simple as ___). With 20 cards at each level, this deck provides ample opportunities for targeted practice, progress monitoring, and data collection. 📈 The lesson cards can be revisited at any time to provide reminders or extra support. This activity supports analogy skills at multiple levels, with built-in progression as students strengthen word relationship knowledge over time.
