Description
Do you have a child who struggles to produce the sounds /k/ or /g/, and despite your efforts, are still having difficulties communicating? It can be so frustrating when you feel stuck in therapy and are unsure of how to help your child. Instead of repeating the same cues and hoping for a breakthrough, there’s a better solution.
Introducing the K & G Sounds Handbook: a comprehensive guide featuring over 100 different cues designed to help your child elicit the /k/ and /g/ sounds.
Unlike other elicitation books, this handbook offers a wide range of cues, including verbal instructions, word lists, photographs, and visuals, all tailored to individualize the learning process for your child. We’ve combined this extensive resource with real-life clinical experience to empower you with the confidence to problem-solve and find the right cues that match your child’s specific speech sound challenges.

CONTENTS:
Included in this detailed digital download are two comprehensive handbooks—one dedicated to the /k/ sound (70 pages) and the other to the /g/ sound (70 pages). The content is organized into seven chapters, which are outlined below for your reference:
✅ — “How to” guide on using cues: This section provides an easy-to-understand overview of various types of cues, stimulability testing, and how to effectively combine cues in speech therapy. It also includes helpful checklists and do’s and don’ts to guide you through the process.
✅ — Making the /k/ & /g/ sounds: Here, we delve into the mechanics of producing the /k/ and /g/ sounds and highlight common errors to be mindful of during therapy. You’ll find a special /k/ and /g/ sound screener and our top five recommended cues to try initially.
✅ — Phonetic Cues: In this chapter, we explore four different types of phonetic cues and demonstrate how to incorporate them to assist children in producing the /k/ and /g/ sounds.
✅ — Metaphor Cues: We provide colorful flashcards to help explain these meaningful, child-friendly explanations to facilitate the learning of the target sound, phonological rule, or feature that the child needs to grasp.
✅ — Gestural Cues: With real photographs, we showcase various gestures and hand movements that you or the child can utilize to facilitate a clearer production of /k/ and /g/ sounds.
✅ — Shaping Cues: Building upon the sounds your child can already say, this chapter outlines how to progress through their strengths to achieve the desired /k/ and /g/ sounds.
✅ — Key Word Environments: This section offers word lists carefully selected to encourage and support the proper production of the /k/ and /g/ sounds in meaningful contexts.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
- This is a digital file and is licensed for one person to use. For more information about single-person use, please refer to our Terms of Use.
- This product contains comprehensive elicitation guides for both K & G sounds. Chapters 1-3 are the same for both sounds as they cover general information about elicitation and how to put these guides into practice. Chapters 4-7, which contain individualized cues for each sound, are different. Adventures in Speech Pathology has considered this partial duplication and has reflected this in the pricing for this product.
