Dose: 90 Trials (5 / Word)
Format: Motor Repetition
Clinical Rationale & Motor Speech Target
Medial consonant production in canonical and variegated CVCV forms (e.g., pup-py, ba-by, wa-ter) requires precise coarticulatory timing, syllable transition stability, and intervocalic vocal fold management. This booklet provides a playful behavioral loop: Model → Repetition Trial → Tactile Tracker Fill (Bone/Badge) → Creative Coloring Reward, yielding 45 high-frequency repetitions per page.
