The Cycles Approach Photo Cards: High-Intensity Repetitions

This collection of 50 double-sided cards presents three photographs with four repetitions on each side prompting 24 repetitions per card. If a student completes one card four times during a therapy session, he/she will have approximately 100 trails for that session. All phonological processes corresponding to primary patterns are addressed:

• Syllable Reduction
• Final Consonant Deletion
• Initial Consonant Deletion
• Cluster Reduction—Final /s/-Clusters
• Cluster Reduction—Initial /s/-Clusters
• Fronting
• Backing
• Gliding

A selected number of phonological processes targeting secondary processes are also included for subsequent cycles including:

• Deaffrication
• Cluster Reduction
• Stopping

Additional quick reference cards give the therapist a brief overview of the cycles approach and a detailed list of the phonological processes, their typical ages of elimination, and whether

the process is a primary or secondary pattern. The index card lists the order of the phonological processes throughout the deck and their specific card numbers for easy retrieval and organisation.
