Secondhand Ikea spinny chair remains a solid investment. This student does not like to be ✨perceived✨ (I mean, same) but will make requests to keep the cover DOWN and GO spin as long as they can do it in stealth mode. #aac #saltillo #bskyspeechies #slpeeps
Blue ikea spinning egg chair with shade pulled down. A small hand is visible emerging from inside and is pointing to the word “down” on a communication flipbook.

When the SLP is having an overstimulated kind of day EVERYONE gets to do speech in the cozy corner. Thank goodness it’s Thursday and I don’t work Fridays. 😅 #slpeeps #bksyspeechies
Black light up board with neon wet erase marker drawings and a preschooler sized hand holding a marker in a fisted grasp. Drawings include kid drawn people and clinician drawn minimal pair/initial f words (fox/box, beet/feet, fish). Purple neon lighting and a cube chair are visible in the background. Picture of a cozy sensory corner with beanbag, light table with translucent shapes, and a blue and green light. Magnetic communication boards are visible on the back of a metal bookcase.

Today’s edition of “how many 3D printed variations of communication boards can I make?” featuring a lithophane version of LAMP. LAMP on lamp (light box). #slpeeps #bskyspeechies #3dprinting #atchat #udl
Light box with yellow and pink sensory toy. There is a 3D printed lithophane version of a LAMP communication board. The SLP’s hand is pointing to “down” on the board while the student holds the sensory toy with bubbles dripping downward.

Student kept crumpling up laminated boards, so here’s to trying something a little different. #atchat #slpeeps #aac #a11y #slp

Love modeling on the giant smart board that is disproportionally large for my little speech room. HDMI cord+USB C adapter+bluetooth mouse=modeling magic #aac #lamp #slpeeps #atchat #slp
Speech therapy room with a low table and chairs beside a large smart board. The smart board is displaying LAMP words for life and there is a cable connecting it to an iPad with the same communication app displayed. There is also a low tech LAMP board on the table.

Tiny bookcase with tiny books that go in a tiny projector for my 3 year old. #3dprinting #littletikes
Little Tikes story projector sitting next to a red mini 3d printed bookshelf holding a variety of tiny “books” that are actually stories that play in the projector. There are also 4 figurines in the middle of the shelf that go with the books- Elmo, the pokey little puppy, huckle cat from Richard scares, and the very hungry caterpillar.

Sometimes I make functional prints. Sometimes I decide to start printing a proton pack. It’s called balance. #bambu #qpack#ghostbusters #3Dprinting

We don’t have a dog, but do have coyotes in the neighborhood….not sure this ended well for the bunny. 😢

Hi, bluesky. I’m Sarah and I’m a SLP and maker working primarily with PreK/K aged kids with complex communication needs. I just got a new 3D printer for Christmas (BambuLab P1S with AMS), so I’ll be sharing my #assistivetech, #augcomm, and more general silly creations here.
Three overlapping, black 3D printed keyguards on a table. Keyguards are labeled “Lamp v2,” “TCWP42,” and “TCWP60” in silver sharpie. 3d printed goose from the untitled goose game perched on a metal cabinet holding a tiny screwdriver. Small wooden grogus are visible behind the goose as well as a communication board below him. Picture of a white woman with brown midlength hair and glasses standing in from of a bulletin board with two poster size communication boards- TouchChat and LAMP
