Graduate school — Learned limited amount about /r/.
CFY year — Made little to no progress with /r/ students.
Very embarrassed in front of administration and parents.
Adult — Asked resource specialists how to work with /r/ with reading disorders.
Today — Working with the necessary links for /r/ makes it a systematic and scientific process.
MY /R/ STORY

Change your mind about /R/.
I have always been successful with /R/.
It’s not because I’m special, but because I’ve developed a ton of faith in my scientific process.
BE OPEN TO A NEW APPROACH

• Evaluate 32 variations of /r/
• Find the “key word” —successful production
• Keep a running list of key words
• Choose a customized target
• Determine natural tongue position
• Practice using targeted production practice lists
• Practice at least 150 correct productions per session
• Use homework consisting of key words
• Measure carryover — key words tracked in session and words heard in conversational speech

OVERVIEW OF /R/ BLENDS
© 2016 Say It Right. All Rights Reserved.
19
There is no consistent placement as there is for other phonemes
(e.g. /t/ or /s/ is on the alveolar ridge)
PLACEMENT: /R/ IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER PHONEMES
© 2016 Say It Right. All Rights Reserved.
20
THE PLACEMENT CHANGES 32 TIMES WITH EACH OF THE 32 /R/ ALLOPHONES
The /r/ is produced the same (retroflexed or retracted) but changes depending upon the word and the sounds that proceed it or come after it.
Blends: /r/ comes after the consonant (brown)
Vocalic /r/: /r/ comes after the vowel (Archie)
Prevocalic /r/: the vowel after the /r/ can affect the error patterns of w/r substitution (read, red, rid)

Before believing that statement to be true, and sharing your opinion with parents, please ask yourself the basis for your findings.
Perform oral mechanism exam
Check for mobility of frenulum
Check natural tongue position
DO /R/ STUDENTS HAVE STRUCTURAL ABNORMALITIES?

29
According to research, 95% of students can produce at least one type of /R/ (Curtis & Hardy, 1959; Ristuccia, 2005).
It is important to screen all 32 /R/ allophones and do an oral mechexam.
/R/ STUDENTS HAVE STRUCTURAL ABNORMALITIES

BROCKBeginning of 4th grade year, 6 months years of therapy for R, 1 SLP.
Intervention in public school setting.
Mother shared with me that she was concerned because of regression.
Brock was unmotivated due to lack of progress.
SLP used retroflexed tongue position with all students.

32 ALLOPHONES OF /R/ NEED TO BE EVALUATED
Standarized assessments tend to evaluate limited
amount of /R/ sounds.
32 /R/ allophones provide more opportunities to
find an /R/ that the student can successfully
produce.

• Create space for progress through knowing student’s strengths and weaknesses
• R can be worked on with ease.
• The doubt of thinking that a student cannot be successful takes up a lot of energy.
• Worry-the nagging feeling of past of perceived failure.
• What does this failure feel like for you?
• What things contribute to your funky beliefs about /r/?

LACK OF CUSTOMIZED
TARGET

56
The most ideal set of words to practice (gauging student success/comfort during speech production) to achieve carryover into everyday conversations.
Generally it is choosing one specific allophone or sound from the possible 32 /r/ allophones.
Example: serious (ear medial), herbal (er initial), wonderful (ermedial unstressed)
WHAT IS A TARGET?

1. Effective target selection — Module One.
2. Tongue placement.
3. Phonetically consistent practice words based upon student’s success.
4. Student mass practice (150 correct productions) is essential to progress-based upon student’s success.
5. Effective homework-student correct production list.
THERE ARE 5 WAYS TO CUSTOMIZE /R/ INTERVENTION
© 2016 Say It Right. All Rights Reserved.
58
Target selection is not based on student's ability. Teaching one allophone of /R/ which is customized
results in the production of other related allophones (Gierut, 1986).
INTERVENTION NEEDS TO BE CUSTOMIZED
© 2016 Say It Right. All Rights Reserved.
REFLECTION: IS YOUR INTERVENTION CUSTOMIZED?
Do you treat all of your students as individuals?
If so, what is your process?
If not, where can you customize intervention so it is more tailored to meet your specific student’s needs?

Increase student’s kinesthetic awareness of what the tongue is doing during correct productions.
Student success is the priority: If the student is not successful, 60% or greater with one of the 7 carryover levels then choose another target from students correct productions or key word list.
