Skeleton Hiccups by Margery Cuyler
Working on /s/ clusters, specifically /sk/ ( skeleton) and /st/ (ghost) and past tense (-ed). Scroll down for more.
Here are some ways to practice words with /s/ clusters at home:
1) If your kids like to "play trick or treat" in the drive up to Halloween, you can talk about spooky or scary things you might see and hear. . Be especially aware of any costumes that have an s-blend, for example, Spiderman!
2) While carving a pumpkin, you can emphasize the “scooping” of the seeds with your spoon. The inside can be sticky!
3) A simple, fun game that is great year-round is “I Spy”. Take turns describing something that is in the room, using simple modifiers that your child will understand. This game is not only great for practicing “sp” sounds, but it is also great for naming functions of objects, meaningful descriptions of objects, and simple wh questions.
