How to use Tween Speech Therapy's Pocket Sized Homework program:
1. Send home the parent letter (included).
2. Write the child's name on the pocket sized homework sheet (included) and send it home. Make a quick note on your therapy notes template (included).
3. Put the completed homework sheets in a bucket or bag, and hold a raffle drawing (with prizes) once or twice a week, using the homework itself as the raffle ticket.
What makes this homework different?
It fits into any child's pocket. This means it's discreet for adolescent students. It also means it won't get left at school, in the child's desk.
The directions are clear. The instructions are already written on each homework sheet, saving you time. The included parent letter explains who, what, when, where, and why.
Students will want to do it. They will want to have their names in the raffle drawing. The prizes can be anything you want.
The program is easy to use. The included therapy notes template is all that you need to keep track of what you assigned, so you can avoid repeating the same assignment. You don't need to worry about assigning the sheets in order.
It's accessible without being babyish. Each sheet includes the target sound with a variety of words that have different vowel sounds and syllable lengths. Pictures that are appropriate for all ages of students are included, to aid in decoding. That way, the students can focus more energy on articulation.
Like saving money? These homework sheets are designed to be printed on a black and white printer.

Please Note: Intentional effort was made to incorporate a variety of vowel sounds on each homework sheet. In other words, the vocalic /r/ homework sheets all contain a mix of different vowel + /r/ combinations (such as "-air", "-ear", etc.). I did this because I wanted my students to practice different vocalic /r/ positions.
Question: What if a student can't say all of the vocalic /r/ sounds yet, and I just want them to practice "-er" words?
Answer: I have added 6 “blank” sheets at the end, for you to customize by writing your own /r/ words. These are great for when you only want your students to practice a specific /r/ type, such as words that end in “-er”.
