There are a number of phonological therapy approaches, and sometimes it can be hard to explain to people in a succinct way, and in language that they will understand, how an approach works, what therapy will look like and why it is appropriate for their child. This is where the Phonology Interventions: Handouts for Parents and Teachers comes in. Covering minimal pairs therapy, the cycles approach, multiple oppositions, maximal oppositions and more; this pack is full of information presented in a way that makes sense to parents and teachers. Provide quality information to the families of the children on your caseload with these useful, print and go handouts.
Do you find it hard to explain to parents and teachers WHAT you’ll be doing in speech therapy and WHY? Would clear and easy-to-understand handouts that explain phonological therapy approaches such as minimal pairs, cycles, and multiple oppositions help? Each page of these handouts introduces the idea that there are various phonological interventions that we can choose so we try to match the right approach to our students.
WATCH A QUICK VIDEO PREVIEW OF THE PHONOLOGY INTERVENTIONS: HANDOUTS FOR PARENTS & TEACHERS BELOW:
1. A summary of the approach is provided to help you explain WHY you will be choosing the targets that you are.
2. This is followed by an outline of what therapy might look like so that parents and teachers are aware that it IS a process that can take time.
3. A sample target list with picture cards has been added to make it easier to understand. I strongly recommend reading & discussing these sheets with parents and teachers to answer any of their questions and make sure that they understand the therapy process.
Phonological Interventions in this set: Minimal pairs, cycles approach, multiple oppositions, maximal oppositions, treatment of the empty set, complexity approach, core vocabulary approach, stimulability intervention, articulation approach (traditional), articulation approach (principles of motor learning),
PLUS three additional sheets covering: articulation vs. phonology, How long does therapy take? and What is carryover?

Who would use these? These would be useful to provide to parents at the start of therapy when you are introducing your goals. You can send it as part of homework to help explain what you would like parents to do. They would also be useful during an IEP or school meeting as you report on your progress.
I have listed the references (journal articles and texts) that I used to create this resource in the packet and you might find it useful to further your knowledge in particular interventions.

This is a wonderful resource to have at the ready to share with teachers, families, and other professionals. I appreciate how clearly the treatment approaches are explained without the use of jargon. Adventures in Speech Pathology ALWAYS creates quality resources! I never hesitate to add them to my collection!
Logan N. (verified owner) –
It can be so overwhelming for caregivers to absorb all the information regarding phonological processes, so these are great to have on hand to share after initial eligibility/IEP meetings.

This is awesome information to provide to parents as a busy school SLP.

Thank you for another wonderful resource. Phonology is such an interesting area of our field, and resources to help other staff understand how to address phonological errors are always helpful.
Stacie M. (verified owner) –
These handouts are amazing, and I have started giving them to both parents and teachers. The explanations definitely helps with an understanding in the different approaches we use with our students and clients. Great product!!
Holly S. (verified owner) –
This recourse is great for parents, to help them understand what exactly we are doing with their children and why. I also think that it is a great resource for new graduate speech pathologists, or speech pathologists new to speech, as it summarises and goes through the main aspects of all of the different approaches that you could use with your speech children.
Hannah W. (verified owner) –
A really useful resource to share with parents and has reminded me just how important it is for parents to understand the approach to therapy being used with their child.
Jill T. (verified owner) –
I have several students with moderate-severe articulation impairments, I used these sheets to describe to one parent what approaches I have tried with the student and what approach I will be attempting next, these were very helpful in explaining to the parent and it was great to give them a written resource to refer to after the conference.
Jaquelyn H. (verified owner) –
Wonderful resource for staff and parents! This helps promote carryover across settings by explaining what we are working on!
Haeleigh R. (verified owner) –
I’m super happy with these handouts! They’re so helpful for both me and my students’ parents. Working in schools, you don’t always have the opportunity for regular parent contact which sometimes makes me hesitant to send practice home for my phono students as there’s a particular way to practice. However, these handouts provide a great intro for parents which helps me help them implement a certain approach at home!
Hannah C. (verified owner) –
So thankful I could just go grab this resource and explain my phonology approach to a parent; Rebecca does it much better than I! 🙂
Amy S. (verified owner) –
I can’t wait share these with families. I recently started working with the preschool population … lots of families are new to speech therapy. These handouts will make communication with parents a breeze! I also have a student teacher this semester. I also think they will be nice to show her… to help her understand the theory behind the practice! Thank you for creating such WONDERFUL resources!!!
