Word Retrieval Activities
Description: Here are some quick activities you can do for children who are having word retrieval problems! Choose a few activities that will make them think of words quickly. The idea is that these types of word games will help them organize the language centers of their brain a bit better. Here are a few to get you going (or you can download our worksheet pack below):
- Fill-in-the-blank associations: “a pair of ___” or “peanut butter and ___”
- Rapid naming from categories: “name as many vehicles as you can”
- Provide a word from a definition: “A red and juicy fruit that is often made into juice or sauce.”
- Listing items required to complete a task: “Name everything you need to brush your teeth”
- Finish similes: “As sticky as a ____”
- Providing antonyms and synonyms: “Provide an antonym and synonym for ‘happy'”
