Are you searching for a research-based way to remediate prevocalic /r/ and its vocalic variations? Look no further—DOT Vocalic R is the resource you’ve been waiting for!

Let your students “dot” their way to better articulation with these engaging /r/ game sheets! This DOT book follows the same user-friendly setup as the others: each student receives a game sheet targeting their specific sound and a paint marker. They follow simple directions, dotting each target as they practice.

Unique Features:

• Reproducible worksheets targeting 8 /r/ allophones:
  • Prevocalic /r/
  • Vocalic ar, or, ire, air, ear, stressed & unstressed er, and rl
• Worksheets that separate each /r/ allophone by word position (initial, medial, final).
• Multiple game sheets for targeting /r/ sounds at various levels:
  • Words
  • Phrases
  • Sentences
  • Sound-loaded sentences
  • Reading passages
• “R-pure” content: Each target word, phrase, sentence, or passage contains only the specific /r/ allophone in the targeted position.
  • Example: If you’re targeting final “ar,” you’ll find words like guitar, but not granola bar (to avoid the /gr/ sound).
• Includes:
  • A screening form to identify needs
  • Certificates to celebrate progress
  • A tracking chart for easy progress monitoring

Note: The four scented, washable, non-toxic, long-lasting paint markers/ink daubers in a handy plastic carrying case are sold separately (Item #ZG-180).

Why You’ll Love It:

Eliminate frustration with a systematic approach to remediating each /r/ allophone that students struggle with. DOT Vocalic R has everything you need for motivating, effective, and productive /r/ therapy—making articulation practice fun and engaging for all!
