5. Skills practice
For example you might do this for any level, just change the sound pics, and be
aware of new concepts.
Listening for the word (given speech sounds)
Give the word, student gives speech sounds
What is the first sound, middle, last…
Spell these words… (use the SSP Spelling Process)
Read these words…
Start with the word X – how many new words can you make, changing one sound
pic at a time?
Here is one sound pic for the X speech sound- do you know another? (look at
speech sound cloud)
Alphabet letter writing (phrases, not letter names)

10. SSP Decoding (reading)
Children give the speech sound for sound pics
starting from left to right, sounding out the
word. If unsure, the adult can say the word, and
then the child can work out the speech sound to
sound pic link. Don’t ever just give them the
word, and let them guess it.
