It ain't always easy getting kids to do their speech homework. But we know skills carryover faster when they're practiced out of the speech room.![]()

Here are 5 tips to boost your chances that your students will actually do it:![]()

1. Use a speech folder - If they don't have a school/home folder already, create one for speech. That way parents will look for the same item each week.![]()

2. Use brightly colored paper - If you don't use a folder (or even if you do), it helps to use paper that stands out!![]()

3. Use quick & easy activities - Speech homework shouldn't be work, per se. It should be something quick and easy the child can do without much support, OR something the parent can implement in their day to day activities.![]()

4. Parent contact - Make a point to communicate with parents as often as you're able. It's helpful if parents know that practice work is coming. Check out the graphics for some great apps or just use old fashioned email/text.![]()

5. Use incentives - It's not always fun to do something for nothing. Make it a fun competition for the students. Let them earn something special if they bring back their work. :)![]()
