Real therapeutic success happens when clients can produce target sounds in words they've never practiced before. That's when you know motor learning has truly taken hold. - Easily generate unpracticed word lists for /r/, /s/, and /z/, pulling different unpracticed words each time  - Demonstrate that motor patterns have become flexible and transferable to real-world communication - Track progress from session to session for easy reporting to parents and committees ![SpeechLink_progress-monitoring-template](https://www.myspeechlink.com/hs-fs/hubfs/SMC%20Screenshots/SpeechLink_progress-monitoring-template.png?width=1138&height=901&name=SpeechLink_progress-monitoring-template.png) ## Use your word lists or ours Progress monitoring is streamlined whether you prefer ready-to-use templates for /ɹ/, /s/, or /z/, or custom word lists tailored to your clients' specific needs. Speech Motor Chaining™ adapts to your clinical workflow. - Easily personalize word lists based on syllable complexity, word length, and competing sounds, ensuring a perfect fit for your client at any stage of therapy - Custom word lists let you enter your own progress monitoring targets with options to shuffle or alphabetize for flexible administration - Easily reuse and adapt previous lists by copying utterances from past sessions, making it simple to track progress consistently across multiple probes or modify lists as your client advances   ![percy_screen-sync](https://www.myspeechlink.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PERCY/percy_screen-sync.png?width=1536&height=1024&name=percy_screen-sync.png) ## Sync your evidence-based practice with busy schedules Access to clinicians is one of the biggest obstacles between children with speech sound disorders and the care they need.
