Using Whole Caseload Projects to Target Individual Goals
One way to keep things fun and engaging in the speech room is to adopt a project-based learning mindset. In this case, project is a loose term to describe any ongoing, beginning/middle/end, multi-step work. This can be more science minded, purely crafty, designed-based, or kinesthetic. The students love it, work hard on their individual targets, and engage in the ability to flex their brains as they work through the tasks. Jump in, get creative, and have fun with whole group projects.
