Do you wish you had some fun and helpful therapy resources for the common phonological error of Final Consonant Deletion? This product takes you through a brief evidence overview, a minimal pairs therapy flowchart, and how to introduce the concept of final consonants using a story. The toolkit also includes fun activities, word lists, and 88 quality color and black and white minimal pairs cards to take the stress out of therapy planning.
The best-selling Final Consonant Deletion Minimal Pairs resource is the most comprehensive minimal pairs resource for SLPs on the market! Have you ever started minimal pairs therapy for final consonant deletion and found that your students don’t understand what you are asking them to do and why they need to contrast pictures like “boo-boot?”
As an SLP who only treats speech sound disorders, I have created the ultimate “research-meets-clinical practice” resource, combining EVERYTHING you need (and didn’t know that you needed) to effectively implement the minimal pairs approach and make progress week-by-week.
“After the first use my students caught on so fast. The examples were really helpful and the kids understood exactly what to do. I will be purchasing more Toolkits!”
What makes this therapy resource unlike any other is the phonological pattern stories, which explain the student’s pattern in a child-friendly manner that makes sense and “clicks” for them (e.g., “tail sound” and “no tail sound”).
DOWNLOAD THIS RESOURCE IF YOU WANT TO:
❶ — Have one resource that contains ALL the minimal steps: familiarization, auditory discrimination tasks and practice using minimal pair contrasts
❷ — Be able to “teach the rule” about final consonant deletion using our highly reviewed stories that “click” for students

“Love this resource and the use of “tail sounds” as an analogy to discriminate and elicit word differences. The story used to explain final consonants is awesome. The kids come away with a firm understanding of the rules of language to improve overall speech clarity.”

“I wish I’d bought this sooner! I introduced this to a couple of my kiddos and it instantly clicked! No more FCD!! Well worth purchasing this product!”
“Really “clicked” for a lot of my students! The visual and the story helped them understand the parts of our words so much for than when I’d write it orthographically or say it to them! Now, we can use little animals and they use the tail as a visual to say the final sound. Amazing!”

This is a great resource for students with phonological processing disorder. this visuals are great and the kids really love to read the story.
Ellen H. (verified owner) –
Woot woot! Now my kiddo can see the difference between a word with or without a final consonant! We also used it to test his auditory comprehension- now that I know he can hear the difference between words with and without final consonants (he points at them as I say them), we can move on to his use!

This is the 3rd or 4th set of minimal pairs cards that I have purchased from Adventures in Speech Pathology and I am always pleased with the product. The pictures are bright and are easy to store. I find that students are able to quickly catch on to the concept of minimal pairs and the variety of sounds that are offered in the pack is perfect.

I use these minimal pair toolkits every. single. day. The story is a great introduction to the skill and to the language you will be using with the kiddos to describe the sounds. The minimal pair pictures are clear and most of my clients catch on to the words represented easily. These make for great activities in session and easy homework to send home. Highly recommend!

Great resource to help my kiddos learn their “tail” sounds. Working with minimal pairs really helps my students understand how one sound can change the meaning of the word they are trying to produce.

I use this product with all my FCD kiddos and especially love the initial teaching story. I can always trust that AISP products are well researched and will have the most effective targets and minimal pairs. Just the best.
Veronica V. (verified owner) –
This was a really fun way to explain final consonant deletion to my students. One of my students wasn’t responding to cues to add the last sound in the word, but after reading this story and working through it, he responded really well when reminded to add his tail sound. I was really happy that I bought this and tried it, because it was really fun for him and helped a lot.
Ruth C. (verified owner) –

I am a third year SLT student and currently have a child on my placement caseload with FCD. This resource has been brilliant to keep them engaged with modern visuals. The materials were super easy to prepare. The supporting information within the toolkit is accessible to all levels and provides lots of hints and tricks. LOVE IT! Worth every penny x
