Carryover Stories (Later Developing Sounds) Double Dice Add-On Deck

The hardest step in articulation therapy is often carryover, moving a corrected sound from drills into everyday conversation. These sound-rich stories elicit six later-developing sounds naturally, right where students need the practice.

Build articulation carryover in conversation through sound-rich stories that elicit six later-developing sounds.

The Carryover Stories (Later Developing Sounds) Double Dice Add-On Deck targets six later-developing sounds, R, S/Z, L, TH, SH, and CH, through engaging, sound-rich stories and conversation-based questions that elicit target sounds naturally. Each 3 x 5 inch card features a photograph, a sound-rich short story, and four strategic questions. With 54 cards and 216 prompts, the deck promotes meaningful, in-context practice that builds confidence and fluency in everyday speech.

Skill targets:

• Speech sound carryover: using target sounds in connected speech
• Conversational skills: responding to story-based questions
• Listening comprehension: understanding and recalling story details
• Storytelling and description beyond single words

How to play:

1. Place nine cards face down on the table.
2. The student rolls the double dice.
3. The outer die reveals a shape, so flip over the card with the matching shape.
4. The inner die reveals a number, so read the corresponding prompt.
5. The student responds, then play moves to the next student.

Who are these photo cards helpful for?

The Carryover Stories (Later Developing Sounds) Double Dice Add-On Deck is ideal for Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs), who address speech sound production and carryover. Particularly valuable for kindergarten through grade 6, the years when later-developing sounds are typically in therapy. This deck supports individual articulation therapy, small group sessions, and home carry-over practice with families.

Why Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) love this deck:

These photo cards move articulation practice into connected speech, which is exactly where carryover breaks down and where drill cards cannot help. The sound-rich stories elicit the target sound naturally in conversation, and the questions keep students producing full sentences. The double dice (sold separately) keep students engaged across the 216 prompts.

• 54 large-format playing cards (3 x 5 inches) with photos, sound-rich stories, and four questions per card (216 total)
