For therapy: 
- A mini whiteboard and different color expo markers. Index cards and sharpies are good too.
- 2-3 hand puppets (kids are sometimes better at talking to a puppet than to a new adult, and puppets present opportunities to demonstrate different linguistic concepts, especially in teletherapy)
- A mobile mouth model w/ moveable tongue can be super useful when physical modeling isn't cutting it
- A canva subscription/some other graphics program to build your own resources AND/OR TPT resources relevant to the clinics you're assigned to. 
- Explore Boomcards and Boardmaker, but wait until you start to see what your grad program may be able to provide to you so you're not paying out of pocket if you don't have to. 
- If you're going to be doing teletherapy, having a doc-cam can be helpful if you prefer writing by hand to typing. You can also buy digital pens that work on trackpads. 
- I highly recommend creating a system for organizing digital resources beforehand so that you can keep using any images you pull without having to dig far. For instance, I created a digital sticker slide-set that has every GIF or image I've ever pulled, organized by theme. Now, if I have to make a new activity, I can very rapidly copy/paste those assets into new docs. It's literally cut my lesson planning down by like 60%. 
For class: 
- Notability if you like being able to write directly on PDFs easily
- Zotero
- Join your NSSLHA chapter if you haven't already to get access to ASHA pubs/leader
- Master Clinician and Simucase are also great. You may want to hold off on Simucase because your program may have a student discount code available, which cuts the cost significantly. 

Hi everyone! I start grad school this Fall and was wondering on ideas for things I should buy for class, therapy, etc. Any ideas appreciated! 

Hello! I am currently a first year grad student in the Redlands program, feel free to message me with any questions! 
 

Hi! I went to U or R for my undergrad and loved it! There are some really amazing professors in the program. I lived on or near campus all four years and always felt safe.

Someone shared their experience from Redlands on her instagram: @thanksmorris (you may have to scroll down, but it is one of her videos)
It seems like a really supportive and great program! All the SLPs I have met or seen who have studied at Redlands are amazing SLPs!
