years. The scenarios are of real photos that elicit language and engagement.Discussion prompts are included with each scenario and include guidance for the therapist, teacher or parent to incorporate when leading the discussions. The scenarios foster problem solving and brainstorming for possible solutions for each difficult communication situation.When Life Gives You Lemons, Make Lemonade - While the theme is lemons the scenarios are common listening situations where problems may occur due to the setting, the listener or the person talking.A scaffolding strategy, I find successful when introducing self-advocacy begins with an experiential language activity of making homemade lemonade. This rich experience sets a foundation for an ongoing series of lessons on self-advocacy and the premise of this resource. Children in my practice learn early, they are the boss of their hearing loss. Sometimes life hands them sour lemons but they can choose to turn those lemons into sweet lemonade.Digital - No PrintInteractive PDF with clickable buttons to navigate between pages.Teletherapy and as no print in face-to-face lessons/sessions.Read more on the HearSayLW blog.
