Scissors, Glue and Phonological Processes Too!

Scissors, Glue and Phonological Processes Too!

Ages 4-9 years

Target these common phonological processes:

• Final Consonant Deletion
• Fronting
• Stopping
• Stridency Deletion
• Pre-Vocalic Voicing
• Consonant Cluster Reduction
• Gliding

Each phonological process/unit has a large selection of reproducible pictures.  The activities progress in difficulty from words, to phrases, to sentences, and storytelling.  There are eight activities for each phonological process/unit:

• "Container" worksheet and minimal pair pictures—discriminate between minimal pairs by gluing pictures into contrasting compartments on the worksheet
• Maze—cut out pictures and glue them along the maze and practice target words at an appropriate level of difficulty
• Picture Scene—cut and glue pictures onto a scene and target phonological processes at the word, sentence, or connected speech level
• Hidden Pictures—cut the flaps on the scene, place a sheet of pictures behind the scene, and lift the flaps to reveal the hidden pictures
• Crazy Animal—cut and paste assorted parts and accessories (words loaded with the target sounds) onto illustrations of animals
• Fun with Phrases—cut and paste minimal pairs pictures above their matching phrases
• Sequence Stories—arrange pictures in sequential order and retell the story using the target words at the sentence and connected speech levels
• Create-a-Story—create stand up characters and items to go along with picture scenes
