⭐️If you would like to have small printable cards of Boom Cards, for “hands on” activities, here are some easy directions from BoomLearning!

1. Navigate to your Boom Learning library.
2. Find the deck that you want to print and click 'Action'.
3. From the drop-down menu, click 'Print'.
4. Once the deck fully loads, choose how many cards per row from the drop-down menu.
5. Click 'Print Deck'.

Students are thrilled to be their own SLP by moving the virtual token pieces on a Smart Board or iPad. These pieces become a way in which students can get that concrete tactile and visual input while matching colors and dragging them from left to right during their own attempts at verbalizations for every word or part of the sentence that they produce. The virtual token pieces can act as a pacing board and a means for students to cue themselves for their best speech practice. This act of dragging the token pieces really grounds the student to the activity.

The moveable characters and objects in the scenes can be dragged into locations of your choosing while the student learns to follow directions and listen to details. Students find these cards so engaging while you are racking up data on multiple objectives, like asking and answering WH- questions, following specific directions, describing locations, pronoun use, labeling verbs, turn-taking, and more.
