Written in the best-selling format of the HELP series, these lessons have:

goal-driven activities
high quality, timeless content
appeal to a broad age-range
gradual increase in complexity within and between activities
application to a wide range of developmental and acquired disorders

Stimulate word retrieval and rapid recall with lessons organized by these areas:

Automatic Associations

Recall words through familiar associations like rhymes, songs, and story titles; common foods, people, nouns, and verbs; name brands; abbreviations, geographical words; and similes, idioms, and proverbs.

Themes

Descriptive phrases help clients recall 24 words for each theme. The themes are everyday subjects like clothing, school, furniture, forest, and transportation.

Definitions

Retrieve a variety of words based on their brief definitions. Clients identify objects, actions, and situations; identify items by their word class; and supply opposites and synonyms.

Answering Questions

Answer wh- questions with word banks, without word banks, and in fill-in-the-blank formats.

Parts of Speech

Supply nouns, verbs, adjectives, and prepositions using word banks and fill-in-the-blank formats.

Using Context

Practice word finding with common conversational statements, themes, inferences in sentences, common sayings, and survival words.
