Stopping Minimal Pairs Toolkit

Have you ever tried minimal pairs therapy for stopping and found that your students don’t understand what you are asking them to do?

What if you could read your student a story that explains their speech errors in a child-friendly manner (introducing the idea of long and short sounds), and then pair it with visuals and concepts that you can use to cue your student throughout the therapy process?

DOWNLOAD this toolkit if you want to:
❶ — Understand the steps in minimal pairs therapy
❷ — Complete familiarization and auditory discrimination tasks in a print or digital format
❸ — Get a list of multisensory activity ideas to help teach the concept
❹ — Have a set of high-quality minimal cards
➎ — Use the print or digital story to introduce the phonological cues
❻ — Evidence-based information about minimal pairs therapy

This resource is intended to be the STARTING PLACE for minimal pairs therapy.

FIRST Introduce the concept that there are Long sounds and Short sounds by reading the child-friendly story and completing some of the hands-on learning activities.

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 concepts as cues as you engage in drill-play games using the beautifully illustrated minimal pairs cards.

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

❝ Very practical and helps to actually “teach” the students with phonological disorders!❞

❝ 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.❞
