Description: Have you ever had a student say “shdop” for “shop”, or “shde” instead of “she” and you just can’t find a way to teach them how to smoothly and correctly say their “sh” words without another sound coming in? The ‘H’ Insertion Trick is an efficient type of production cue that can help your students to successfully transition from their target sound to the rest of their word (without inserting a plosive!). ⭐ This is particularly useful for students who show the phonological pattern of STOPPING and keep inserting a plosive in their words ⭐ Using these easy to understand visuals and listening to the sound file examples of HOW to teach the trick, you will confidently be able to teach your child how to say words starting with “sh” correctly. 1. Introduce the “Sh” visual 2. Model how you will join the “Sh” picture to another word “sh…hip” 3. Listen to the sound files to make sure that you say it the correct way 4. Practice this trick across three different tasks that increase in complexity 5. Celebrate when your student is independently able to say “sh” words without another sound intruding in! Includes THREE different activities, teaching pages, sound files, and a total of ten different word targets.
