Welcome to the Speech Home Practice Page!

Your child receives speech interventions through MTSS (Multi-tiered System of Supports). Even when school is in session, it's extremely important for your child to be practicing their speech sounds at home. On this page are activities that can be used for home practice. If you have any questions or would like to consult with me, please don't hesitate to contact me at clau@sd735.org. I will respond within 24 hours during school hours, M-F.

QUIA has free online games to practice articulation skills

Remember to practice saying the words aloud, carefully and correctly. If the word is too difficult, just practicing saying the R sound by itself. For example, if "parrot" is too hard, you can just practice saying the "air" sound. If "race car" is too hard, practice "ruh" and "ar". If "ball" is too hard then practice "all" by itself.

• QUIA Articulation Games Scroll down the page until you find the sound your child is working on, click, and go! Your child's sound is the same sound that comes home on speech homework sheets. If you're unsure of which sound your child is working on, just send me an email! clau@sd735.org

Multisyllabic Words

• If your goal is to practice "long" words, this page is for you! Practice 3+ syllable words here. If the word is challenging, try using the pacing board. Choose a shape and tap out a syllable per shape (so a 3 syllable word would be tapped out on 3 shapes i.e. bu-ter-fly for butterfly). You can find the pacing board here.
