  • Reviews (127)

No planning necessary with these cards, perfect for playing unlimited engaging articulation games, all while really maximizing those productions! Used just like a regular deck of playing cards, these 52 playing cards each feature a picture and a word that contains /s/ words in initial, medial, and final positions, perfect for drill-based speech therapy. Just print, laminate and you’ll have a quality set of cards ready for instant articulation activities whenever you need it!

SLPs know that we need to maximize the number of practice trials during our sessions.

Students know they just wanna have fun!

Combine both by playing engaging articulation games, including anything you could play with a regular deck of cards. Play any card game – Go Fish!, Crazy Eights, or Memory! I love playing War with these cards! Or, just use them like any articulation drill deck.

Here’s what’s inside:

  • 52 Color Cards featuring /s/ words
  • 52 Black and White Outline Cards

Featuring /s/ in all positions of words:

  • 17 Initial /s/ Words
  • 17 Medial /s/ Words
  • 18 Final /s/ Words

Use these cards at any articulation level, whether you’re starting with words or ready to work on articulation carryover and generalization.

Here’s some reasons why other SLPs have loved these articulation playing cards:

♥ “We played war during our speech therapy session, my kids had a great time. I like that the cards can be used in several different games.” – Amber P.

♥ “This is a perfect way to drill! My students love it.” – Leigh J.

♥ “A great resource that is a go-to. I have also used this resource to send home for extra practice!” – Jennifer B.
