Here are some basic tips to help you work with your child at home while I get this up and running! I posted the sounds that most of my speech kiddos are working on right now. Use a mirror if your child has difficulty producing the sound correctly.
/s,z/ - make sure the tiger stays in the cage! Don't let the tongue stick outside, keep it behind the front teeth.
/th/ - bite your tongue with your teeth- make sure your tongue sticks out. Don't bite your lip though!
/sh/ - almost like the /s/ sound, but your tongue should be back a little farther. Round your lips like a fish!
/k, g/ - hold your tongue tip down so only the back of your tongue goes up for this sound.
/l/ - make sure your tongue gets up to "the spot" behind your top front teeth! SMILE! Don't round your lips.
/f/ - bite your lip with your top teeth and blow air out.
/ch/ - train sound. Almost like /sh/ and /t/ sounds combined, make sure there is a burst of air.
/r/ - get your tongue: up, back, tight. It is almost where we say /k, g/. If its hard, try slow syllables like "greee".
