This one is pretty lazy. Just grab any speech material book or card. In between questions, make the dramatic dun-dun-DUN sound. It doesn't really make sense-but it's silly enough that the kids didn't seem to care.
If you are feeling a little bit motivated, you could also use your laptop and this "DRAMA button."
What are your super lazy speech therapy tips?

I play a game I invented called "Yoink!" (the name is derived from The Simpsons - "Yoink" is what Homer would say when snatching something away from someone,such as a doughnut, usually right out of their hands) Using a deck of paired articulation cards, I put a card on the table in front of a student when it is their turn. They say the word (once, 5x, in a sentence, whatever is appropriate). The card stays face up on the table where I can see it. Play continues in this manner until a card is dealt that someone already has. If a different student already has the card, I take that card from both students (exclaiming "Yoink!" as I do) and they go into a discard pile. If the same student already has the card, they keep the match for the duration of the game - I cannot "yoink" it. When I run out of cards, I take all the yoinked pairs, reshuffle them and continue play, reshuffling and repeating yoinked cards until time runs out. The kids LOVE this game (and love yelling "YOINK!"as I take the cards. I've also played with decks of opposite cards, verb cards, etc. As long as it is a deck of cards with matches, you're good to go. Because I'm the one passing out cards (and taking them from players), I can keep the game going very quickly for maximum productions of targets. Please note, this game only works with groups of 3 or more students. It always ends in a tie with 2 students.
I'm not sure what it is about those sounds that make a boring session fun!

Shannon-Yoink sounds like a lot of fun! I bet your students love it!
