INTRODUCTION
P
Every school speech therapist has the same dilemma. How do you fix your
articulation students’ stubborn and persistent vowel-R distortion? This type of
student is able to produce the /r/ sound in all positions of words except when it is
preceded by a vowel sound. These vowel + /r/ sounds present a serious
roadblock to an otherwise successful therapy plan. The severity of this type of
distortion is so significant, and so apparent in the students’ speech, that it must
be addressed as quickly and efficiently as possible. Some students never correct
this vowel distortion during their years in elementary school speech therapy and
then must continue onto middle school with an articulation problem that may
impact their social and emotional growth.
R
WHY THE VOWEL + /r/ SOUND IS SO DIFFICULT
E
Each time a different vowel precedes the /r/, it changes how the sound must be
produced. Say the following vowel + /r/ words aloud and notice how each one
is formed by your lips, tongue, teeth, and palate: are; air; ear; earn; oar; and
(unstressed-/r/) father.
V
When you teach these vowel + /r/ sounds as a group, rather than focusing on
them as individual sounds, your therapy becomes confusing and inefficient for
the students. This wastes valuable therapy time, provides insufficient drill, and
prolongs the need for future speech therapy.
IE
PURPOSE OF THIS “ER” (ə́r) BOOK
W
There are many products on the market to teach the /r/ sound, but few of them
offer a total program for remediating specific vowel + /r/ distortions. Do you find
yourself borrowing a few pages here and there from multiple sources or even
trying to create your own worksheets in sufficient quantity to thoroughly teach
and drill the “ER” sound? Do you have a library full of books, but only a small
portion of the content is useful? Do you spend too much time gathering
appropriate curriculum that best suits the needs of your students or do you feel
that you are conducting the therapy sessions by the seat of your pants because
you are unprepared? This manual provides a complete course curriculum for the
“ER” sound.
3
HOW TO USE THE MANUAL IN THE THERAPY SETTING
P
Your students begin the program by taking the test on page 5 to assess their
ability to use the “ER” sound in words and sentences. This pre-test and post-test
assessment tool will serve as your periodic data collection as you move through
the program. An additional word test found on page 25 can be administered
after the students have completed the core vocabulary section of the manual.
R
The program begins with simple repetitions of a 16-word core vocabulary and
progresses through increasingly complex vocabulary and language drills
encompassing phrases, short sentences, complex sentences, question and
answer drills, tongue twisters, simple stories, and longer rebus stories. This therapy
manual not only provides multiple speaking opportunities, it requires your
students to use thinking skills by incorporating the vowel “ER” in complex
language activities. The full color illustrations and activities are so engaging that
your students will stay focused and willingly participate during the entire therapy
session.
E
V
This manual will provide approximately four months of material for weekly
therapy sessions. By the time your students complete all the activities in the book
in addition to consistently practicing the materials at home, they should master
the “ER” sound in the therapy setting using conversational speech.
IE
Many speech therapists like to conduct five-minute mini-sessions with their
students during the week in the students’ classrooms in addition to the more
formal sessions in the therapy room. Because this manual is already downloaded
to your computer, you do not need to worry about extra preparation or printing
out materials. All you need is your laptop to take from room to room.
HOMEWORK
W
It is NOT the purpose of this manual to instruct you how to teach the “ER” sound.
Your education and experience has provided you with these skills; however,
there are several internet sites that offer specific tips on teaching vowel + /r/
sounds and are available for your convenience at no charge.
The activities in this manual are appropriate for homework once the students
have learned the correct production of the “ER” sound in the therapy setting.
Directions for each individual activity are simple and clearly stated on every
page and can be easily practiced with a parent or caregiver. As the students
4
practice at home, the activities will provide excellent reinforcement of the skills
you are teaching in your therapy program.
WHY I DEVELOPED THIS PROGRAM
P
This type of manual did not exist during most of my 35-year career as a school
speech therapist. A comprehensive program targeted on specific vowel + /r/
sounds would have allowed me to provide a more focused therapy for my
challenging articulation students. I’m happy to offer this material to make your
work as a speech therapist more productive, efficient, and less frustrating. Thank
you for purchasing this manual.

who will be “O.” The first player selects a picture and rolls a dice. Repeat
the word, using your best “ER” sound, as many times as indicated by the
