Phonology Archives - Adventures in Speech Pathology

I always go in with a “best case scenario plan” when deciding on a therapy approach for my kids.

But sometimes the child just doesn’t match the approach that I have chosen, and that’s okay too.

Usually, we “trial” an approach for 4 sessions before I just give up and do something else.

e.g., one child really struggled with multiple oppositions and the number of contrasts, so we changed to minimal pairs using a complex contrast and their progress and participation significantly improved!

Sharing a little tip today!

Hiding a cue and flipping it around to help the child understand WHEN to use the sound can be really helpful.

Sometimes our kids overgeneralise a sound that they learn…. So it will be “sh-push”. It’s like they KNOW they have to use that sound, but are still learning where in the word.

But HOW do you incorporate phonological awareness

But HOW do you incorporate phonological awareness activities in your speech therapy session?

Like this 👏 start small, start simple.

Two tasks I LOVE:
1. Break a word into syllables
2. Tell me the sound at the start of the word

Using food is a great way to do this, as food items have lots of 2-4 syllable words!

This was the end of our session, so we had done a LOT practice already and just needed some fun to end it all off.

This is how we started the first 7 minutes of our therapy session. Look at all the work we achieved 👏

BTW we colour code this so green is correct and red is incorrect.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE! Yes, Adventures in Speech Path

IMPORTANT MESSAGE!

Yes, Adventures in Speech Pathology is my “business”… but my drive for creating resources is for my CLIENTS first❤️

It’s why I’ve told myself, that even though I could easily give up my clinical work and focus on the resource creation side… I LOVE MY KIDS TOO MUCH!

I love being in the trenches with SLPs 💪🏻
I love pushing myself to be better and learn more.

And I really love when I have the inspiration to make that one thing to help that one child on my caseload ❤️❤️❤️

I looooooove these early stages of speech therapy!

I looooooove these early stages of speech therapy!

Trying to figure out what works for a child and “playing around” with different cues to help them be successful is probably my favourite part…

It’s also why I find it hard when parents and SLPs ask for advice on how to say a sound - every child is different and I work WITH them to find out how THEY learn best.

Hope you can add this tip to your toolbox 👏

Comment what sound you’d like me to show next 👇🏻

I mean…. I don’t know WHY you would want to keep kids on your caseload for yeeeeeears 🫠🫠🫠🫠

I don’t!

That’s why I try to learn about a therapy approach in-depth and implement it correctly 💪🏻

So yay to the Cycles Approach Handbook!
