Are you looking for verbal reasoning activities? Then look no further. Verbal reasoning is how we can understand complex sentences. As you read, your brain breaks apart the complexity into smaller and easy-to-digest. This packet is filled with exercises that may help to improve verbal reasoning skills.

The first exercise is based on the digital exercise, Hurray for Change. In this exercise, you must correctly sequence letters, words, and numbers alphabetically and numerically. We put this exercise first to help warm up your brain, as you will use these skills later in the packet. After this exercise, you will have three other verbal reasoning activities. We hope this packet will help you learn strategies to think critically by using the given information, process information effectively, and then take affirmative action.

This packet will be great for kids 8+, individuals who have had a stroke, or individuals who have aphasia. Additionally, individuals with executive functioning deficits, trouble processing verbal information, or anyone who wants to challenge their verbal reasoning skills may enjoy these activities as well.

Included inside: 22 worksheets and bridging questions.

We designed this packet to stimulate visual skills related to verbal attention. The goal of this packet is to engage all aspects related to verbal and visual attention skills. We believe Verbal and visual attention skills are essential to all cognitive functions, especially those around social cognition and language. This packet will start by challenging your patients with two different adaptations of our digital exercise Private Eye. In this first exercise, your patient will have to find perfect circles. The following exercise will challenge their ability to recognize the correlation between words and their meaning to determine which words do not belong. The following exercise is a modification of Elephant Memory. This modification requires your patient to study a scene and answer questions.

The last two exercises are focused directly on verbal attention. This last section starts with an adaption of Restaurant. This adaption aims to engage your patient’s ability to compare and contrast two recipes. Looking side by side, your patient will identify what was different between the recipes. Finally, your patient will have to read a passage and find the typos and errors in this modified version of This Story is Full of Blanks.

This packet is an excellent resource for teachers who want to challenge their students’ ability to process visual-verbal information. Therapists have also used this packet to help stimulate patients with brain injuries that affect their verbal attention skills or aphasia.

The digital exercises that inspired this worksheet

Private Eye

Primarily, this task exercises your client’s sustained attention and concentration skills. Attention is the essence of focus. Your client will need to focus on looking for a specific target and ignore other visual information that could distract them.

Pay Attention!

This exercise demands your attention skills as well as your working memory. You will see a set of items to remember, and then be tasked to recall them in a specific order. This exercise translates to situations such as remembering a medication regimen or directions to and from a friend’s home.

Seize the Keywords

Retaining information for later use is important for remembering directions to desired locations, functioning in the workplace, completing homework on time, and for running errands. In this exercise, clients must memorize the key elements of a text in order to reconstruct the text in a logical manner. While challenging verbal memory, this exercise also challenges clients to practice the foundational skill of delayed recall.

Elephant Memory

In everyday life, we encounter situations where we must remember information either in the form of words, letters, or numbers. The ability to recall words is needed for speaking, writing, and comprehending language. In this exercise, your clients must memorize a list of words while developing effective strategies to help them remember the words that they have seen. This activity challenges verbal memory, needed for situations such as remembering a grocery list or instructions from a doctor.
