Description

Have you ever tried minimal pairs therapy for ‘s’ cluster reduction (e.g., where ‘snail’ is ‘nail’) and found that your students don’t understand what you are asking them to do? What if you could read your student a story that explains their speech errors in a child-friendly manner (introducing the idea of sound buddies), and then pair it with visuals and concepts that you can use to cue your student throughout the therapy process.

DOWNLOAD this toolkit if you want to:
❶ — Understand the steps in minimal pairs therapy
❷ — Complete familiarization and auditory discrimination tasks in a print or digital format
❸ — Get a list of multisensory activity ideas to help teach the concept
❹ — Have a set of high-quality minimal cards
❺ — Use the print or digital story to introduce the phonological cues
❻ — Evidence-based information about minimal pairs therapy

This resource is intended to be the STARTING PLACE for minimal pairs therapy.

FIRST Introduce the concept that there are Sound Buddies by reading the child-friendly story and completing some of the hands-on learning activities.
NEXT By using the print or digital version, complete familiarization and auditory discrimination activities so that your students understand and can hear the difference between the pairs.
THEN Use these Sound Buddies concepts as cues as you engage in drill-play games using the beautifully illustrated minimal pairs cards.

❝ This was absolutely perfect for my needs with a few new /s/ blends students! We LOVED the sound buddies story, and great for teletherapy, too. I was able to send the black and white packet home to parents for carryover.❞

❝ LIFE SAVER!!! I have really struggled motivating one of my kiddos to work on his phonological processes, but this worked like a charm! He was really engaged the entire time. I’m so excited to use this again!❞

❝ The children I worked with loved the cluster reduction story and found it very engaging! I love the images and the word choices in the minimal pairs. Overall love the resource and highly recommend!

This resource has made learning how to integrate minimal pairs and teach clusters a breeze. The instructions are very clear, explicit, and research-based. The visuals and introductory story are perfect for my preschool kids.❞

    This resource is amazing. Using the “Sound Buddies” story has been a game-changer in introducing clusters and even 3-element clusters (this has 3 sound buddies!) while implementing the complexity approach. Having the story to help give my students a visual and then being able to generalize this into our sessions has been so great. The word lists are so helpful in planning sessions and I use the cards in both in-person and virtual sessions. As usual, the pictures are engaging AND inclusive. I use this resource all the time in my sessions and highly recommend it!
