270-page illustrated, reproducible book with multiple meaning words, idioms, proverbs, indirect and direct polite requests, polite evasions, irony, and sarcasm.
Saying One Thing, Meaning Another provides background information and materials necessary for educators to help individuals ages 10 through adult improve their understanding and use of ambiguous language. The activities use a cognitive approach to address deficits in the comprehension of multiple meaning words, idioms, irony, indirect and direct polite requests, and polite evasions. Use this book with individuals of normal development, those with language learning disorders, the hearing impaired, those with brain injury, as well as ESL students.
I have given this as a gift to several student clinicians. Practical, useful and funny. Works for a variety of clients!

Saying One Thing, Meaning Another
I am thrilled to have this resource to work with students in middle school & high school. Te He's materials assist me with helping students understand non-literal language, including indirect requests & sarcasm.

Excellent for High Schoolers
This book is RICH with material for working on higher level language goals-from multiple meaning words to ambiguous sentences, humor, sarcasm and more! It's nice to have it all in one place. This is a great resource for anyone working with older kids on the autism spectrum. It gives you tons of ways to talk to them about "hidden messages" and drawing inferences at the conversational level.

Saying one thing Meaning another
I love the way this book is set up. It is easy for the children to manipulate and the examples are appropriate for the middle school aged students. The children on the autism spectrum can do each task and the language used helps them get the inferences without frustration.

I enjoy your products and...
I enjoy your products and love your language games/activities. I would like more interactive products and language stimulating toys for early childhood. I work with many pre-kindergarten students and would benefit from a larger variety of products for children at this age. I love the fluency enhancing tools and the Magne Talk activities.
