PRACTICING SPEECH SOUNDS
About practice worksheets: It is important to produce a high number of correct repetitions in each session. This does not mean that the child needs to practice every word containing the target sound or even a large number of different words. Most students do not need more than 15-20 sample words (exemplars) in order to practice accurate productions. The goal is to practice the target sound and learn what the sound feels like and sounds like. Some children and parents become bored with using the same word lists for extended periods. In this case, a website containing word lists may be helpful. One very good site is wordbyletter.com. This site allows the user to search for words that begin or end with a specific letter. This site not specifically for speech therapy. The lists on this site, and sites like it, are not screened for children and may contain a few words that some would find offensive so parents should assist children with these sites
