Grab your wooden unstacking blocks game and these mats for a FUN and EFFECTIVE speech therapy session with this game companion! I love playing stacking blocks in therapy but my students often got frustrated with how easy it is to knock over (and some of my students would knock it over or bump the table on purpose). I wanted to figure out a way to play this game without as much frustration

This is how Articulation Blocks was born! Includes a blank fill-able (type-able) mat to create your own! Includes a Google Slides version with moveable pieces, great for distance learning, teletherapy, or a no print option. I also added Mini Articulation blocks to use with mini tumbling tower sets (I get mine on Amazon).

Sounds included: 100 + pages 

  • Initial/medial/final and a mixed sound position page: p, b, m, n, t, d, k, g, f, v, l, s, z, sh, ch, th (voiced and voiceless)
  • Initial/medial: w; Initial: h, y; final: ng
  • R mats: pre-vocalic r, er, ar, or, ear, air, ire, rl, mixed vocalic r. 
  • Blends: sblends: Separate mats for initial sp, st, sk, sm, sn, sw, sl, medial/final sblends; initial/medial/ final lblends; initial/medial rblend

You will get 5 files in this zipped folder: Regular Articulation blocks mats, Black and White Articulation Blocks, mini blocks mats (to use with mini tumbling blocks), Google Slides link, and an editable (type-able) mat.

→ Materials: stacking blocks game (wooden stacking blocks such as JengaTM or Tumbling Towers). You will also need to select one of the Articulation Blocks Mats that targets the desired strategy.

 → Game Set up: Stack the blocks up like the traditional game (three blocks together, alternating directions per 3 blocks…like the image above). Pick the Articulation Blocks mat that you need for your students and place it in front of them.

→ Game Play: Start off by telling your students this isn’t the regular stacking block game (where you take blocks off and stack them back on top). Tell them this is an UN-stacking game!

Each player will carefully remove a block out of the tower (they are not allowed to take one of the top blocks until the tower is down to 2 layers or no other blocks can be removed without it tumbling down). Then they get to choose a block on their mat to put it on. The student will practice the word  and then place the block over it.
