✂️Your students will love filling the backpack with school supplies while practicing articulation. This activity was designed to be a simple, no-prep activity to target articulation perfect any time during the year. It is a simple cut and paste craft! Perfect for k-5 (some younger students may need cutting assistance, depending on fine motor abilities).

 NEW Easy Cut Version included for free! There are two files in this download (regular and easy cut). I added the easy cut version for my younger students (it has a cutting guide around the images) NO-PREP! Ink Friendly! Print & Go!

Your students will love filling the backpack with school supplies while practicing articulation.

This activity was designed to be a simple, no-prep activity to target articulation perfect any time during the year. It is a simple cut and paste craft! Perfect for k-5 (some younger students may need cutting assistance, depending on fine motor abilities).

 Commonly targeted phonemes included:

• Initial/Medial/Final: k, g, f, v, l, s, z, ch, j, sh, th (mixed voiced/unvoiced)

• lblends, rblends, sblends (separate mats for sp, st, sm, sn, sk, sl, sw, mixed)

• Pre-vocalic r, or, er, ar, air, ear, rblends

• Don't see a sound you need? I included blank pages to use with any speech/language target.

I also included a guide that can be used as a coloring page too! Table of contents/page guide included to make finding the page you need easy!

 → Assembly: None! Print & go!

 To use: Print out a backpack page for every student in the group (page 6 of the download). Print out the sound pages with the target sounds needed for each student. I have the students color the backpack first so that they are ready to put the supplies in (or you can have them color it in between turns to keep their hands busy). The student will color and practice each target word on the school supplies. The student will cut out the objects and practice the words again. The student will glue each object in the backpack and practice the word one more time! Get over 100 trials easily!
