Dr. Rentschler, I have been using “Lost at Sea” ever since I heard you discuss it at the ASHA convention in Philadelphia. In your paper you write, “a good therapy activity generates a lot of talking.” “Lost at Sea” certainly motivates students to talk! I like to use it with a wide range of students (not just students who stutter). One of my favorite ways to modify it is by rewriting it in a simpler form so that I can target specific vocabulary. I shared your activity with a colleague of mine this week and he said, “This is my new favorite activity.” I laughed and showed him the title of your paper. Thanks for introducing me to this great activity.
