This winter Valentine's Day activity resource serves as a great way to teach speech language therapy students or English language learners how to follow directions and produce sentences containing spatial concepts. While many resources offer mixed practice with multiple spatial concepts at the same time, this is often too much for our students to handle. This resource allows for repeated blocked practice for each individual spatial concept to improve memory and understanding of the concept. Spatial concepts are presented in opposites, with one concept emphasized on each page. This activity allows for increased language comprehension while also providing opportunity for vocabulary development, sequencing, categorization, and sentence production.

Included in this resource:

Task Cards/Flash Cards can be used to drill spatial concepts with the fun Love Monster picture, engaging students as they practice following directions. They can also be used as memory games or paired with motivating board games. These task Cards include:
