I recommend you print on cardstock and laminate for durability.





Description

This articulation picture card set focuses on the contrast between final /t/ and final /k/. It would be a great set to use with a child who is using fronting or backing phonological processes or a child who is simply substituting /t/ for /k/ or vice versa. The words are all VC or CVC in syllable shapes and do not include vocalic /r/ sounds or consonant blends. The pictures are as simple as possible and should be accessible to young children with minimal teaching.

Key Features

  • This set includes 36 picture cards (18 t/k minimal pairs) with the target word and picture on the front.
  • The words are all VC or CVC in syllable shape.
  • The words are easily understood by or easily taught to young children.
  • Combines the target sounds with all possible vowel sounds at least once.

  2. I can't believe you do all of that work just to post the cards for free to anyone who can use them. But I sure appreciate it with a 4.5 yo old who fronts and has no /k/ or /g/ sounds unless we slow down and use monkey mouth signs. Thank you so much.
