HOW TO Remediate Cleft Palate Speech

Hope you had a fun summer!  It's time to get back into the swing of things.  I have several children on my caseload with a cleft palate in various stages of surgical management. The book Therapy Techniques for Cleft Palate Speech & Related Disorders by Karen J. Golding-Kushner, Ph.D., is a great resource for selecting targets and providing cuing techniques. The author suggests words to use in therapy. 

My product provides the picture support for the words suggested by Dr. Golding-Kushner.  In addition, my co-worker Kathryn Duren, MA, CCC-SLP, summarized the cuing techniques for each sound.  Hope you find this resource useful. Check it out at Teachers Pay Teachers.
