5 Minute Therapy





5 Minute Kids is a program for delivering
services to students with speech sound disorders by scheduling short, individual drill sessions. This program requires little planning for the professional and minimal time out of the classroom for the student. The child receives therapy in the hallway for designated number of 5 to 10 minute sessions, based on therapy needs. Over the last 5 years, data has shown that this model is more effective than traditional group therapy in achieving speech and language goals.




The 5 Minute Kids program:

Offers ideas for intensive drill activities for articulation and phonology students

Increases instructional time in the regular education classroom

Provides opportunities for individualizing goals and services

Organizes data materials efficiently

- Can be used with Response to Intervention (RtI) services
