May is Better Hearing and Speech Month! In honor of that we are offering a 10% discount on all Online orders through May 31, 2015 using code ____expired____. Also, our SGM® iPad App is $14.99 during the month of May (which is $10 OFF)!
To kick off Better Hearing and Speech Month we wanted to share MindWing Concepts' Pragmatics Chart
We also suggest a wonderful book to use in conjunction with the chart and poster for lessons on the social uses of language; including body language, tone of voice as well as listening and speaking skills, which are a large part of the Common Core State Standards. This book is Decibella and Her 6-Inch Voice by Julia Cook (Author), Anita Du Falla (Illustrator). The ideas and illustrations are perfect for Better Hearing and Speech Month because they focus on speaking (and listening) skills!
Happy Better Hearing and Speech Month!!
