About the Flashcards

The Cycles Intervention for Bilingual Children flashcards were created by Valentina Gil-Valle, an expert bilingual speech language pathologist who frequently implements and adapts the cycles approach with her bilingual English-Spanish speaking clients.

The Cycles Approach is a phonological intervention method designed by Dr. Barbara W. Hodson. It is utilized to target multiple speech sound patterns in children with severe to profound phonological impairments. These specific flashcards were designed to follow the traditional cycles approach and also include important considerations needed to ethically treat bilingual English-Spanish speaking children.

These unique bilingual flashcards utilize cognate words as the main targets on each card & also supports evidence-based research on the idea of targeting shared patterns and sounds between languages for bilingual children.
