FINALLY….. SLPs are learning about, and incorporating facilitative contexts as a cue to try when they’ve “tried everything”. Because if you haven’t tried facilitative contexts for your /s/ students and you’re STILL STUCK, it might take you a long time unless you expand your toolkit 👏🏼

Check out @adventuresinspeechpathology for all things facilitative contexts 💪🏼

Whether your child has a frontal lisp, lateral /s/, or they’re pushing too much air and disrupting that skinny airstream, showing the child these cues will help 👏🏼 and they’re FREE!

Fun therapy activity (Nerf guns + Articulation cards) but WOW!!! If you’re an SLP who has never heard of or tried facilitative contexts, you just have to add this to your knowledge!

Can you believe how quickly ALL those sounds generalised to ALL positions just by figuring out a starting place for success with a few “ch” words 🤯

P.S. we have you covered for facilitative contexts, just tell us what you need to know!

Comment “shaping” so we can send you the link to purchase the K & G Sound Handbook 🙌🏽

It has saved THOUSANDS of SLPs when they’ve “tried everything” and “nothing works.” We assure you, you have not tried everything if you don’t own this handbook 😉

Who else spotted my @bjoremspeech clicker?

As an SLP who LOVES minimal pairs, this is 100% the best way I’ve found to store them 👏🏼

These rainbow storage boxes are the best!

CUES: From the Minimal Pairs Toolkit

Mini cards… they’ve changed my life 🤗 now to make them for everything!!

We currently have them for cycles and complexity approach, but I’m thinking to do more!! Thoughts? Would you use them?

We have a new Australian citizen in our household!

FUN FACT: my American husband, Paul, and I discussed living 7 years in Australia, then 7 years in the USA… but he fell in love with Australia and now he’s their newest citizen 👏🏼

Congrats babe 😘 I think you proved your citizenship when you were bitten by Australia’s most deadliest spider, but I’m glad you passed the official test!!
Sometimes it’s a PROCESS for helping children say /k/ - I’m reinforcing mouth open, back of the tongue raising here! It’s moving away from saying /t/, but we still have some work to do to get it to be clearer.

Have you ever started with a throaty sound like this and turned it into a clear /k/?

Stimulability Approach

We love this short-term approach for kick-starting therapy for 2-4 year olds who struggle to say many sounds.  This approach can be a fun and engaging way to start therapy for highly unintelligible little ones and their families before moving onto other therapy approaches that will make greater system wide change.   We hope our recommendations below will have you confidently implementing this approach with your kids.
