Instruction
To begin this session, the therapist will read the book called
“Happy Birthday Hamster” to Zachary. The therapist will read it
through once to him, and then a second time together with
Zachary talking about the book as we go. This book focuses on
using descriptive words describing different things the characters
encounter throughout the day. The therapist will note the first
few and then ask Zachary if he can pick them out himself. This will
model to Zachary how to use proper descriptors in a sentence. In
the next activity, the therapist will present Zachary with an
Irregular Plural booklet. Along with the booklet, the therapist will
provide Zachary with an adjective cube. To complete the booklet,
Zachary will write the plural of the singular version and then he will
create a sentence about that plural. He will use the adjective cube
to help find a describing word to use in the sentence. After he
creates the sentence, he will draw a picture. We will work on this
until it is complete. In the final activity, the therapist will provide

Zachary with another cube. This time it will be blank and Zachary
will have to fill in with the adjectives of his choice. We will roll
back and forth creating silly sentences using the descriptive words.

Evidence supporting intervention strategies
~Language disorders: from Infancy through Adolescence Assessment and
Intervention by Rhea Paul
-Drill, it’s a form of Clinician Directed Approach (CD). “Often contain
Prompts”, if the response is one that the clinician intended, the child is
reinforced with verbal praise or some tangible reinforcer. It makes use of the
classic format of discrete trial intervention (DTI).
~Plurals: Common Core State Standards (2010)
b. Form and use frequently occurring irregular plural nouns (e.g., feet,
children, teeth, mice, fish).
~Adjectives: Common Core State Standards (2010)
6 Use words and phrases acquired through conversations, reading and being
read to, and responding to texts, including using adjectives and adverbs to
describe (e.g., When other kids are happy that makes me happy).
Second Grade Common Core State Standards (2010)
b. Distinguish shades of meaning among closely related verbs (e.g., toss,
throw, hurl) and closely related adjectives (e.g., thin, slender, skinny,
scrawny).
Second Grade Common Core State Standards (2010)
