• Difficulty correctly placing her tongue in the right position for /l/.

Client's Goal/Objective

Background Information

Producing the phoneme /l/ in all word positions (initial, medial, final) at the sentence level continues to be a target for therapy.

J.P is a 7-year-old girl who is currently in the second grade at Morris Elementary School. She has been receiving speech and language services in her school since kindergarten. Her social and developmental history is not remarkable. J.P's parents are bilingual, and Spanish is sometimes spoken in the home. However, they identify J.P's primary language as English. J.P exhibits an articulation disorder characterized mainly by substituting 'y' for 'l' and saying 'yeg' for 'leg.' Prognosis for improvement of her misarticulations and her speech intelligibility is good considering her age, adequate language skills, and stimulability for most of the mispronounced sounds. Her annual IEP review is in December 2015.

Objective:

Given pictures or printed stimuli, J.P will correctly produce the phoneme /l/ in all word positions (initial, medial, final) at the sentence level with 80% accuracy.

Bingo Procedures

Provide the student with a Minecraft Roll & Color Activity Sheet.

Provide the student with a bingo sheet.

If the student is unable to produce the /l/ sound at the sentence level, then it is important to practice /l/ at word level first before attempting it again at sentence level.

From a pile of /l/ cards, the student chooses a word and says it in a sentence ten times.

• Articuation Cards
• Coloring Activity Sheet
• Colored Pencils
• Dice
• Bingo Sheet
• Bingo Cards
• Bingo Chips
• Tissue Box

Before drawing a bingo card, the student selects a word that she practiced and says it in a sentence five times.

After saying the word ten times in a sentence, then the student is given a pair of dice to roll in order to determine the number needed to color a specific part of the Minecraft figure.

After saying the word in a sentence five times, the SLPA or SLPA provides the student with a bingo chip and draws a bingo card out of the box.

Repeat the same procedure until the entire Minecraft figure is colored.

Repeat the same procedures until the student gets a BINGO.

Data Collection

This data sheet is used to keep track of her correct and incorrect productions of /l/.

Useful in determining whether or not the student has met the criterion of 80% accuracy.
