Contents

This resource contains cue cards for 24 consonant speech sounds of English -

p, b, m, n, w, h, t, d, k, g, f, v, s, z, ‘sh’, ‘zh’, ‘ch’, ‘j’, r, l, th (voiced and voiceless), y and ‘ng’.

They have been designed for use in Speech and Language Therapy sessions to help provide cues and visuals when students are learning new speech sounds.

An additional file is also included which contains cue cards for /r/ (with bunched and retroflex options), vocalic r and ‘rl’ (see download file).

⭐️ About the cue cards:

There are 5 different sets of cue cards. In each set, there are two sounds per page.

Each cue card includes a variety of cues to support students to produce the target sound.
The types and amount of cues varies depending on which cue card set you’re using. Each set has an explanation page before it, so you can learn more about the individual cue card sets and who may benefit from each type.

Cues include: phonetic cues (visual, verbal, tactile, and motokinesthetic), gestural cues, metaphors, metaphonological cues, and some orthographic cues (note- not all graphemes included).

Additional visuals and cue cards are also provided in the resource. Including a “My Speech Sound Helpers” diagram, visuals for the type of sound, tongue position, volume, etc.

⭐️ See the preview for a detailed overview of what is included in this resource.

PLEASE NOTE: This resource includes a COLOR VERSION ONLY. I felt that the images lost a degree of clarity when in line art form. However, you can print in grayscale from your printer options if preferred, as the shading is preserved in this format.

⭐️ Preparation:

Print onto cardstock. There are two sounds per page; cut the page in half to get individual cards.
Laminate if desired (useful if you want to draw extra cues such as airflow on the cards).
Tip: Print multiple pages to one page if you want smaller cue cards.

⭐️ Ideas for using these speech sound visuals:

• Use in therapy sessions to support speech sound production.
• Print and put on a bulletin board display as a sound wall.
• Send cue cards home for home practice.
• Use the ‘Consonant Speech Sound’ pages (all sounds on one page) for stimulability assessments, progress monitoring, and educating others.

These are suitable for US, UK and Aus. English! (other than the word "color" on the front cover, everything else has spellings suitable for UK/Aus English settings!)
