What types of cues did you see us use to get a clear “ch” sound?

1️⃣ the primary cue was a gestural cue - this helped to get a strong, long sound
2️⃣ we also included some verbal feedback about “round lips”

Just another reminder about the importance of layering your cues - and how every child will require different cues!

Find all the cues to elicit the “ch” sound in the Ch & J Sound Handbook 💪🏼

Parents can forget, or might not be able to attend your speech therapy session.

My top tip is to record you explaining what you say! It makes sure everyone is on the same page 👏🏼

Day 2 of our Bjorem Cruise 👏🏼 

1️⃣ Navigating the ship was an experience in itself
2️⃣ Loved all the videos about CAS from @bjoremspeech 
3️⃣ I got to explore Nassau, Bahamas and swim in that water (and get dysregulated with loud music and hangry 😝) with my travel buddy @freetobeme.speech 
4️⃣ Bumped in to the phenomenal @speakingofsamantics team (Sam and Scott) on the boat
5️⃣ Games night was HILARIOUS! Our field cracks me up @mrsspeechiep 
6️⃣ it was just nice to “dress up” and explore the ship!

Why am I late with my Bjorem Speech Cruise recaps? Who’s got time to splice these together when you’re laughing, connecting, and gathering 100ish talkative SLPs together?!

Special mention to our keynote speaker, the incredible @phuonglienpalafox, my SLP besties @rocktherspeech, @freetobeme.speech and @mrsspeechiep - and the entire @bjoremspeech team who made this possible.

Our sponsors delivered on the goodies bags👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 @speakingofsamantics @meaviatoys @daileyeducationalservices

Whooo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 made it on board and officially checked in for the 2025 Bjorem Speech Cruise @bjoremspeech 

So excited to to connect and present with all the SLPs on board! Follow my stories for all the behind the scenes!

I was sleep deprived, time zone confused and a little overwhelmed at presenting in front of REAL LIFE SLPs for the first time in my career.

I love that the 2024 Bjorem Cruise 🚢 and Jen from @bjoremspeech offered me an opportunity and the right song to just make me feel like I could do this!

Can’t wait for next week!! I’ll be presenting about something I’m passionate about: getting high practice trials in speech therapy for working with SSDs.

I could keep coming up with more mini ideas… should I make a round two version?

You don’t HAVE TO ELICIT A SOUND IN ISOLATION FIRST 😅

Yep, feel that relief! You can carefully screen for possible facilitative contexts, and see if certain vowels or consonants can encourage (or facilitate) a clearer sound!

I’ve updated my vocabulary (part of being a Know Better, Do Better SLP).

The last one (swapping “correct” for “clear”) is a personal choice after reflecting on my own child’s speech journey.

What words have you changed?

#articulation #speechsounddisorders #speechsounds #speechdelay #schoolslp #adventuresinspeechpathology
If you child deletes the second consonant sound in a cluster, you may need to work on that smaller word chunk (e.g., “lice”), and THEN try adding the /s/ at the start to make the cluster.

  1. Alison C. (verified owner)

    I found these so useful to quickly check milestones for my students. I particularly liked that they include clusters as I always find it tricky to work out if these are age-appropriate or not.

  2. Melissa S. (verified owner)

    I referred to these so often last year for my own purposes that this year I will be printing and hanging them on the wall near my desk! I hope I have an opportunity to give them to parents this year as well.

  3. Abby P. (verified owner)

    I love being able to hand these out to parents during evaluations, especially for articulation needs.

  4. Kristi H. (verified owner)

    A helpful tool to have if you’re an slp working at the schools. This is a great tool to share with your families and staff so they know when to reach out to you for a referral or seek outside speech therapy.

  5. Venus S. (verified owner)

    Having all of this information on 1-page to present to my student’s parents and/ or teachers is incredibly helpful. Thank you for this!

  6. Amy S. (verified owner)

    Another great resource. I show these to parents during initial speech therapy assessments. Very simple and easy to use. Thanks!
