Speech Therapy Tools for SLPs and Educators

30 Books to Help Teach Negation

NEGATION BOOKS BLOG POST

Negation is a critical part of language development that is targeted by SLPs in speech therapy. This is a common grammar difficulty found in emerging language.
Examples of negatives include: no, not, never, none, no one, nothing, don’t, can’t, won’t, etc.

Books are a really fun way to teach this concept! I rounded up some books that contain repetitive negatives to help teach the concept of negation expressively and receptively. Some clearly include negatives and others make it easy to talk about and teach negatives.

Resurfacing this old post because it’s THAT impo Resurfacing this old post because it’s THAT important! 👇👇👇

When teaching phonemic awareness, DON’T add add a schwa to the end of the sound! For example, the first sound in “feet” is /f/ not /fʌ/. Not adding a trailing “uhhh” sound is critical because when a child is learning to blend and segment words to read, they will pronounce the word “fuheetuh.”

It feels natural to add a schwa to the end of a consonant...but don’t dooo it!

This YouTube video shows how all English sounds are produced ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xiqUVnXExTQ&ab_channel=SallyCole
