Auditory Bombardment: Presenting multiple varied examples of the target sounds, often with amplification and within meaningful contexts (e.g., stories).
Identification Tasks: The child identifies correct versus incorrect versions of the target sound (e.g., distinguishing "rat" from "wat")
Judging Speech: Tasks move from the child judging speech produced by others to judging their own speech for accuracy.
Typically used before or alongside speech production training methods.

A study incorporated speech sound perception training with natural speech tokens and a computer game format to improve speech sound perception in children with phonological errors (Rvachew, 1994).
Integrating speech perception and phonological awareness into speech production therapy may enhance both speech and literacy skills in children with speech sound disorders (Brosseau-Lapré & Roepke, 2022).
