Free Printable New Words and Communication Log

Every new word, sign, picture or gesture, with the date, how, and where or with whom. Growth that is easy to miss, on one page.

What you type stays on your phone.

How to use it
  1. Write the words you're practicing with your child's speech therapist in the box at the top.
  2. Each time your child uses something new (a word, a sign, a picture or device, a gesture), write it on a row and tick how.
  3. Bring it to speech therapy and IEP meetings: it shows growth that's easy to miss day to day.

Why it helps
