2 Kids:
- Kid 1 is working on /r/ at the sentence level
- Kid 2 is working on increasing intelligibility and repairing communication breakdowns
Random Ideas:
- Kid 1 is given a card with a single prompt written on it (it’s a sentence with /r/ in it). He must read it to Kid 2 and Kid 2 must respond with intelligible speech. Kid 1 must say “I don’t really understand” when communication breaks down and Kid 2 must repair.
- Kid 2 must ask Kid 1 a question from a deck of cards or list (questions that can be answered in one sentence). Kid 2 must use clear speech when asking and Kid 1 must answer using good /r/ sounds.
- Play Guess Who: Each person has to ask “does your person have a…” Kid 1 focuses on good /r/ sounds and Kid 2 focuses on clear speech.
- Kid 2 reads a short passage and then asks Kid 1 a list of questions. If Kid 1 doesn’t know the answer, Kid 2 must figure out where the communication breakdown occurred and clarify as necessary.
- Both kids must work together to build a block structure but only Kid 1 may touch the blocks. Kid 1 must ask Kid 2 questions about where to put the blocks using his good /r/ sounds and Kid 2 must use intelligible speech and repair breakdowns to get the structure created. Maybe Kid 2 has a picture that they have to go by.
