Stopping Minimal Pairs Toolkit F P V B S T Z D SH CH J

SLPs love our best-selling Stopping Minimal Pairs resource for being the most comprehensive minimal pairs resource on the market! Have you ever started minimal pairs therapy for stopping and found that your students don’t understand what you are asking them to do and why they need to contrast pictures like “bun-fun?”

Or you have some students who stop “see” to “tea” and other who stop “see” to “D” and you want a flexible resource that prepares you for both patterns.

As an SLP who solely treats children with speech sound disorders, we know the importance of combining “research-with-clinical practice”, giving you EVERYTHING you need (and didn’t know that you needed) to effectively implement the minimal pairs approach and make progress week-by-week.

“I LOVE all of these phonology toolkits!! Once we read the short/long sound story, I could see lightbulbs going off for my students. I love the way that these toolkits give students tools to analyze their own speech in a relatable way.”

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., “long sound” and “short sound”).

⭐ How does the Minimal Pairs Toolkit work?

FIRST Read the child-friendly “My Long & Short Sounds Story” and complete the hands-on learning activities so that your student “clicks” with the phonological rule
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 Long and Short Sound concepts as cues as you engage in drill-play games using the beautifully illustrated minimal pairs cards.

“The stories and pictures are all clear and engaging. I have found the stories so beneficial and they have great ‘reminders’ to use with the parents too. After going through the story with children we refer to it in future sessions as a prompt/reminder.”

“My students loved the book that came along with this resource! It made teaching the concept of stopping so easy for them to understand.”

“This is a huge packet of tons of activities that I’ve been able to do with my phono kids in speech sessions that has provided tons of fun, engaging activities and clear visuals.”
