Description

Speech Sound Worksheets are packs of illustrated resources for children. Each pack focuses on an individual phoneme in a specific position in words (initial, medial or final) This pack focuses on b initial.

All of the activities provide multiple opportunities for the adult to model correct production and for the child to correct their own production of words. Thus, the adult uses pictures and activities to prompt the use of the target word/sound.

Speech Sound Worksheets offer a wide range of attractive interactive games and activities which encourage the production of the focus sound through each of the following stages.

identification of the chosen sound;
developing discrimination skills so that children become aware of their error patterns;
correcting the productions through increasingly complex production contexts i.e. individual words; simple phrases; complex sentences;
generalising the sound into spontaneous conversational speech.
