The SLP Center uses Tween Tribune, the news website for kids, in therapy!

This website has news articles that are geared towards kids. You can browse the website by age/grade/topic. The articles are easy to read and are not too long. Once the client has finished reading, they can take a quiz with comprehension questions and can leave comments with their thoughts about the article.
Here at the SLP Center we use this website to work with our upper elementary school/middle school clients. We use it to address goals including: sequencing, comprehension, answering questions, retelling/recalling information, commenting and conversation skills.
Keep an eye out for future posts about how we are using this website in therapy with examples of the comments some of our clients are making!
