The H Insertion Trick for Speech Therapy
$12.50
Have you ever had a child with phonological errors on your caseload who can say their new sound but they also insert their error sound AFTER the correct one when they try to use it in words (e.g. “fban” for fan)? It can be SO TRICKY! The H Insertion Trick might just be your answer! This resource includes all you need to teach your student this trick with intuitive, child-friendly visuals that just make sense! It is perfect for children using stopping errors (for: f, s and sh), or voicing errors (for: k, p, t). Save the frustration and try The H Insertion Trick for Speech Therapy today.
Description
Are you targeting stopping, but your child continues to insert a plosive between the target fricative sound and the rest of the word?
e.g., they say “fbeet” for feet
“shtip” for ship
“chtair” for chair
The ‘h’ insertion trick (also described as the aspiration trick by Dr. Caroline Bowen) essentially tricks students into saying words starting with voiceless fricatives, affricates and plosives accurately. By using visuals and blending the initial target sound with a word starting with /h/, children might be able to say their target words clearly.
“This is such a great resource! I have been able to see the growth my student’s have made utilizing the H insertion trick. It’s absolutely GENIUS!”
DOWNLOAD THIS RESOURCE IF YOU WANT:
➊–Proven cues to eliminate plosive insertion after initial voiceless fricatives—no more “fban” instead of “fan”
❷–A breakthrough technique when traditional cues have failed to click with your student
❸–Progress in therapy even when minimal pairs aren’t working or aren’t appropriate yet
❹–An effective trick that gets students producing voiceless sounds correctly—fast
What can you use this for?
1. Stopping: Help students who can produce their target sound in isolation but add a stop to the airflow—turning “fan” into “fban” or “soup” into “stoup” or “sdoup”
2. Voicing errors: Support students who voice voiceless plosives at the beginning of words (the /k, p, t/ pages will support this)
3. Fronting/backing: While I haven’t used this technique for fronting or backing personally, many SLPs report success using it to elicit /k/ and /t/ sounds before moving to minimal pairs therapy
⭐ See this technique in action with our free H Insertion Trick YouTube Playlist—then master it completely with our resource!

LOVE LOVE LOVE
This is not only a good idea for intervention, but this resource makes it incredibly easy to provide intervention! It’s easy to follow for the student and they enjoy the activity within it. I can’t wait to see how they progress over time! I am very hopeful!

So cute and comprehensive
I really like the look of this resource, and I was surprised to see that there were video examples for how to use it as well. I think this will be a useful tool for years to come for a small, but difficult percentage of my caseload.
