  • Initial and final word positions
  • Early developing phonemes and…

Here’s how you can use these engaging articulation smash mats in speech therapy:

  1. Children love smashing their snowballs as they practice….say the word or sentence, then cover the pictures with a ball of play dough, before smashing it flat!
  2. Pull out your magnet and bingo chips to cover each word
  3. Try covering the snowballs with mini-erasers
  4. Dab each snowball with dot markers (this is a favorite!)
  5. Use the B&W version and let your kids glue small cotton balls on the pictures as they practice, then color the snowmen.
  6. Grab dot markers to use with the BW version as you practice articulation skills.
  7. Older students can have fun at the sentence level making up silly sentences with a combo of 2-3 of the pictured words.
  8. Have your students repeat each word found 10x for 100 practice opportunities per page!
  9. Send it home for homework
  10. You can also color the snowballs while using an interactive telepractice platform, if you have access to those tools
