No-Prep December Challenge! I Challenge you to do Less

Do you think you could go a full month without prepping any activities for therapy?

Would you like to try?

December is a notoriously busy month and usually our clients and students are all zany with that “pre-holiday” energy.

So how about this year, you give yourself some slack?

We’re doing a no-prep challenge this year and it’s going to change the way you look at therapy!

Rules for the No-Prep December Challenge

  1. You may not prep any therapy activities during the month of December
  2. You may not take elaborate data on student progress more than once in December (use rubric-data instead)

How to Prep for the No-Prep December Challenge

  1. Set up your speech folders (see last week’s podcast episode)
  2. Choose 1-3 skills to target for each student in December
  3. Grab no-prep kits or other no-prep materials and drop in their folders
  4. Print out a rubric-style data sheet for each student and put in your data binder
  5. Watch the webinar on the 25th for more details

What your Sessions will Look like Instead:

  1. Students come in and grab their folder
  2. Students practice their skill by itself for a few minutes
  3. Students grab a game, craft, or other activity off the shelf
  4. You continue to practice their skill during that activity
