This is one of the best fluency programs I have ever used. Not only does it build fluency skills, but it also provides information that helps to desensitize students and develop positive attitudes about their speech skills. I've used it with several middle school students, and have seen amazing things happen. These materials could also be adapted to use with articulation and apraxia work.
