The conversation starters are truly the most phenomenal product I've purchased.  I was excited when I received them and they really do teach spontaneous conversation.  I also carry them around everywhere because they're such a convenient size.  Thank you!  These have helped my students greatly.

CONVERSATION STARTERS
 
Why are these so successful?
Children practice conversation in simple steps.  They learn the flow of information continues about the same topic.  These are not learned social scripts.  They teach spontaneous conversation as the child fills in the blanks.
How do they work?
The conversation starters employs two stages for teaching.  The first stage teaches children to spontaneously answer questions while the second stage teaches children to inquire about other people and to initiate conversations.  Each set includes six different topics with a yellow card signifying the start of each new topic for immediate access.  Known as a "Speech Teacher's Dream," they're so convenient you can carry them in your pocket or clip them to your key ring and use them throughout the day.  The front of each card poses a fun and interesting question about the topic.  Flip it over and the beginning of the answer is on the back, encouraging children to fill in the blanks.
