Description

This articulation homework booklet is designed to be an extension of my single-syllable card sets. The target words are all one syllable words that include no blends other than the initial /fl/ blend and no vocalic /r/ sounds. This booklet is designed to be read by a parent (or therapist, older sibling, classmate, teacher...) and child together. The helper reads the typewritten words pausing for the child to "read" the picture words. Each time the book is read, the helper can put a sticker/stamp/checkmark in one of the boxes on the front of the book. This will encourage multiple practice readings. The child's fluency should increase with each repeated reading. The words on the back page can be used for either auditory bombardment before reading the book together or for drill after finishing reading the book (or both). The target audience for these cards are children with speech delays who are ready to practice initial /fl/ sounds in a more natural context. Move to these exercises to add complexity and increase generalization after the child has achieved good accuracy with single words, single word repetitions, and simple alternating single words with the initial /fl/ sound.

Key Features

• This booklet features 12 initial /fl/ words incorporated into a simple story to be read by a helper and child together.
• The target words are one syllable words that do not contain vocalic /r/ sounds or any blends other than the targeted /fl/ blend.
• The words are easily understood by or easily taught to young children.

Here is a picture of a homework booklet (the /l/ booklet) printed on cardstock and folded into the booklet. It slides nicely in between board books to be pulled out and read during bedtime story time.
