Description: Minimal Contrast Pairs - Great for working on phonological process reduction: initial consonant deletion, fronting, stopping... Target: Initial /S/ words Contrast Sounds: /S/ & /F/ A multitude of uses! - Auditory Bombardment - Read the /S/ words to the student.  They do not say anything.  Be sure to clearly model the transition from the /s/ to the adjacent vowel if you are targeting reduction of stopping. - Auditory Discrimination - On the pages with two words, you say one of the words and the student drag and drops the check mark to the word you said, either the /S/ word or the /F/ word. - Articulation Practice - Initial /s/ word practice **Bonus - Earn a round of Tic-Tac-Toe at the end!
