On the road to awesome articulation! These activity mats, or speech streets, provide ample opportunities to produce target sound /k/ in all word positions. Students will love this fun alternative to drills and workheets. SLPs will love having an engaging activity on hand that requires minimal prepping.

​

•K in all positions: ice cream cone, kick, cupcakes, candy cane scarecrow, skateboard, cookie crumbs, backpack, cup of coffee.

How does it work? Encourage the student to play with a toy car on the activity mat. Model slow "ride" producing the sound in isolation (i.e. k...k..K...key) on the white lines and stopping at each stop sign to say each target word.

Why does Stop & Say work? As students remain motivated and engaged, they are likely to put more effort into producing target sounds. In addition, the illustrations are child-friendly and the words are easy to comprehend. Students are likely to produce (or at least try to produce) words they can understand and relate to.

Some pages appear upside down on screen: They are designed that way because if you print 4 per page in landscape format, the 4 roads will connect to one another.

Note:

•Printable material only. Car not included. Don't have a toy car handy? no worries. Small items such as a penny, bingo chip or paper clip work just as well.
