Group your Articulation Students and your Language Students together, seamlessly into the same fun & effective group therapy activity!

Do you have mixed articulation and language groups? Looking to eliminate prep? Great news! The Language Theatre Books are completely compatible with the Articulation Theatre Books. Mix and match any combination of books within the same group therapy session! Ages 8-15. Made in the USA.

These books are completely compatible across the two sets!

That's right, you can group together your articulation students and your language students into the same group therapy activity! All 12 books feature the same 10 matching plays and pagination, but each with unique script lines to focus on one target skill. Easily mix-and-match any of the following goals: R, S, L, Sh, Ch, Th, Synonyms, Antonyms, Context Clues, Inferencing, Idioms, and Attributes. As students take turns reading aloud their lines, focusing on their target skill, they are performing together in the same humorous play! Ages 8-15 years or a 4th grade reading level.

It's as easy as 1-2-3!

"My students made measurable progress due to their increased motivation to practice the scenes. Their frustration decreased and liveliness increased as they acted out these entertaining plays. As a SLP I found the books' organization, use of colors to target skills, ease of use for group therapy, and motivating humor to be extremely helpful."

"My students became jovial and eager to engage in the lesson. This atmosphere was helpful in therapy to encourage them to self-monitor. They continue to maintain the progress made, which is a testament to the increased motivation they experienced when using this thoughtfully organized, fun and motivating program." – P.A., SLP

"Thank you for bringing new life to my speech sessions - especially for my older students and those nearing dismissal who are at the sentence and reading levels!" – J.B., SLP

"These books are amazing! So fun!" – J.C., SLP

"I use the Articulation Theatre books all the time!" – L.J., SLP

"I love these! I use the Artic Theatre books to make inferences. I cover the passage and have them read the words and make a smart guess to figure out what they think the passage would be about. And use for artic - more like a warm-up. I think you need to have discussions after reading each passage and have students monitor their speech sounds while discussing. They can be modified for how you want to use them. But better for carryover." – D.F., SLP

"I love the Articulation Theatre set." – T.M., SLP

"I just got Articulation Theatre. It's really great. The kids like it!" – R.W., SLP

"I got Articulation Theatre this year. I like it for my older kids who are ready to generalize sounds into reading context. Then we can talk about the stories using the vocabulary with their target sounds." – E.S., SLP

"I love Articulation Theatre." – S.K., SLP

"My students have really enjoyed the Articulation Theatre Books in therapy this year! They particularly love the I'm Sorry and Insults sections...we always end with Compliments and Fan Mail!" – J.B., SLP

"My students LOVE their Articulation Theatre Books!" – K.S., SLP

"The performance at the end of the intervention was a way for my students to work towards a goal and have a product (i.e. performance) to highlight their work. The Articulation Theatre Books were instrumental in helping my students achieve their goals." – J.P., SLP

"LIGHTS! CAMERA! ACTION! The Language Theatre books coordinate perfectly with the Articulation Theatre Books and are an SLPs dream for mixed groups! I am so excited to use these with my students!" Amanda from A Perfect Blend Teaching

"Language Theatre Books make it easy to target various goals simultaneously in your mixed groups! I just love this unique twist on therapy and definitely recommend them! The best part is that they can also be used with the Articulation Theatre series!" Rachael from Texas Speech Mom

"I'm so excited for the new Language Theatre Books and that they fit perfectly in my caddy for on-the-go therapy! These books are amazing if you have mixed groups in your therapy sessions!" Ashley from Sweet Southern Speech
