Kit II is the more complex treatment kit with even more pictures to include all other complex consonants in different combinations creating nouns and verbs. These serve as a way to move into more refinement and integration skills. This treatment material can be used by speech pathologists as well as parents. Kit II is for the child who is having most difficulties with complex consonants, in terms of producing and/or combining them to form words, phrases, and sentences. The consonants that are emphasized in Kit II are:
/ k / final
/ k / initial
/ s / final
/ s / initial
/ g / initial
CfVCb
CbVCf
/ l / initial
/ l / blends
/ f / final
/ f / initial
/ s / blends
/ r / blends
/S/ final
/S/ initial
"low" pivot syllable
"ter" pivot syllable
"ber" pivot syllable
"ing" or "een" pivot syllable
Familiar complex bisyllabics
Familiar complex polysyllabics
Kit II is a logical step for children who are doing well with Kit I. It is for the purpose of refining and further integrating motor-speech coordination. The Kit pictures are for the purpose of obtaining best word approximations toward target words. The child will do best when able to work at the level of "natural" play activities, once the speech and language pathologist or parent understands how to assist them when whole words are too difficult. |
