Articulation /l,r,s/ Games
from Amy Peters. Print on cardstock. Student will roll a die, then choose a picture in the corresponding row to use at the word or sentence level. The student then places a marker on that space. Roll of "6" means "roll again." Play continues until student gets 5 in a row or all spaces are covered. If playing with 2 students, another option is to have them share a gameboard and play like TicTacToe.
