Description
Everything for R Sound Therapy! This bundle for articulation therapy is great for assessment and treatment of prevocalic and vocalic R.
What's included?
I Can Say the R Sound is full of visuals, elicitation tips, drill pages for the R sound. It provides opportunities for practice in isolation, syllables, words, phrases, sentences and connected speech.
Coarticulation for the R Sound focuses on this tried and true strategy for eliciting a vocalic R when your student can already produce an initial prevocalic /r/. With hundreds of practice pages, you’re sure to love this one.
R Sound Chaining takes the principles of motor learning into consideration as you gradually build longer and longer utterances. Start at the syllable level and work your way up to more natural sounding sentences. You'll enjoy using speech motor chaining with your students.
Say Arrr: Talk Like a Pirate focuses the vocalic AR context (as in arm, cart, or star) with a fun pirate theme. This workbook includes illustrations, photo visuals, and Peachie Speechie’s giant mouth visuals for eliciting a clear vocalic AR.
Deep Dive for R is an informal assessment to help you pinpoint which R context you should be working on during speech therapy sessions. It's great for tracking progress throughout the year or collecting data for IEP present levels.
R Sound Minimal Pairs is a workbook designed for students who have trouble differentiating between the W vs. R (wed vs. red) and/or the different vocalic R contexts. For example, burn vs. born vs. barn. Clean design and polished graphics make it ideal for older students (middle school or high school) working on the R sound, though it can still be enjoyed by upper elementary students as well.
R Sound Summer Practice Pack is a set of take-home activities for continued R practice during the summer months. Ideal for parents who want to continue practicing R with their children when school is out.
Listen & Draw for the R Sound: If your students love to draw, this simple activity is for you! Students pick a card containing a silly sound loaded sentence and then illustrate it. Perfect for R Sound groups!
Coarticulation Spinners for the R Sound is an engaging game for targeting vocalic R using the coarticulation strategy. Use a pencil and a paperclip to make your spinner, and get ready for some fun.
R Sound Toolkit is a great starting point for successful R therapy. This product is a printable card deck, designed to be part of a toolkit.
RL Words Activities targets those tricky RL words such as world, girl, and squirrel. It breaks down the words in a systematic way, reducing frustration and increasing success!
R-Blends Activities specifically targets R-blends in the initial position of words such as bring, crash, and drink. It features illustrated practice cards and sheets that break the initial phoneme away from the word before having the student blend it all together.
