How to teach a child to correctly speak the sound with and other whistling sounds: articulatory gymnastics, setting sound with, video - a demonstration of simple and affordable ways to set sound with, songs with sound with.

Many children mistakenly pronounce the sound C, which is difficult for them, and other whistling sounds (s. z, z, c). They can skip this sound or replace it with other sounds.
In the norm of speech development, by the age of five, children correctly pronounce all the sounds of their native language. a (with the exception, perhaps, of the sound p, which may appear a little later - at 5.5 years). But now, few of the children reach this norm. What is the reason?
1. Previously, in every kindergarten, from the age of three until graduation from kindergarten, articulation gymnastics was regularly carried out with all children before breakfast, and in the evening - individual exercises with children who find it difficult to pronounce sound. And this was not done by a speech therapist, but by the most ordinary trained educator! And these were not isolated complexes, exercises and games, but a strictly substantiated system of teaching speech and pronunciation of sounds. Because problems cannot be solved without a system. Now this is already history, and it is rare where you can find such a clearly and consistently built system for the work of a teacher on sound pronunciation with kids. Perhaps that is why modern children have more problems with speech.
2. Now parents pay much less attention to the speech of babies. Often the child is required only to show something: “Where is Saturn? Where is Jupiter? Where is the Hermitage?” rather than the ability to express YOUR thoughts, YOUR feelings. Very often I hear: “What difference does it make what he says. The main thing is that you can understand it, and that's it! But speech is a means of self-expression, communication, knowledge. And the success of all types of human activity depends on its development.

The child incorrectly pronounces the sound with and other whistling sounds. What to do?

How to help a child if he incorrectly pronounces the sound with and other whistling sounds? Can parents help a child?
As it is right, parents wait for the age of 5 and then take the baby to a speech therapist. Although sometimes one push is enough, which will cause the correct sound in the child and help to fix it in speech, without waiting for the age of five. And this “push” should be done not at 5-6 years old, when it was already late, but much earlier - at the age of 4. And most importantly, to give such an impetus, you do not need to be an expert specialist at all! You just need to know the exact technology learning sounds for kids and its nuances.
In order to form the correct pronunciation of all the sounds of the native language in children in kindergartens, special sound pronunciation classes are held for all children (Note - not even in speech therapy kindergartens, but in the most ordinary kindergartens, sound pronunciation classes should be regularly held). If for some reason there are no such classes, then at home you can help the baby.
I know many mothers and grandmothers who, living far away from a speech therapist, coped with the problem of difficult sounds themselves and helped their babies. And I know many educators who can prevent speech disorders and help the child speak correctly and learn to pronounce all the sounds of his native speech. We are all able to help the baby and tell him the right way!
But I want to warn you:
If the child does not have complex speech disorders, then the techniques that I will discuss in this article will be enough. And he will please both you and himself with the correct sound suddenly appearing in his speech with or z. And there are many such children! The only task left is to make the correct pronunciation of the sound automatic, i. automate the correct pronunciation of a given sound.
But if all sounds are disturbed in a child, he makes a lot of grammatical mistakes, his speech is slurred, he speaks with difficulty, then a speech therapist is indispensable. And the sooner you contact a specialist, the better the results will be.
All articulation exercises are useful not only for children whose sound pronunciation is impaired, but for all preschoolers, because they develop the articulatory apparatus, make it more mobile, flexible, teach them to control it consciously.

Sound stages.

Working on a new sound that the child pronounces incorrectly includes a number of steps:
1. Clarification of the movements of the organs of the articulatory apparatus needed to pronounce this sound, training the movements of the articulatory apparatus - articulatory gymnastics,
2. The appearance of sound- sound setting
3. sound acquisition- fixing the correct pronunciation of sound in the child's speech (in isolation, in syllables, in words, in phrases and texts - poems, stories, games, nursery rhymes). I will talk about all these stages in more detail.

First stage. Articulation gymnastics for whistling sounds (s, s, s, s, c)

As a rule, in a child who does not speak the sound c or pronounces it incorrectly, the sound pronunciation of other whistling sounds is also impaired (whistling sounds include the sounds s, s, ts and a soft version of the sounds - s, s). One of the reasons for the incorrect pronunciation of sound is the lack of mobility of the organs of the articulatory apparatus. Therefore, for correct pronunciation, a special “regular exercise-exercises” is needed - articulatory gymnastics.
AT complex of articulatory gymnastics exercises are combined that prepare strictly defined movements of the articulatory apparatus and the positions of the tongue, lips, necessary for a given group of sounds, develop the correct air stream. Therefore, I really do not recommend moms, dads, grandparents to come up with their own articulation gymnastics complexes from different books and from the Internet. After all, all the complexes of articulatory gymnastics are by no means randomly compiled! It is impossible to form movements that are opposite to each other at the same time, therefore, in the complex of articulation gymnastics, all exercises complement each other and are aimed at one goal - one group of sounds!
Articulatory gymnastics should be performed daily without interruption. The most convenient time is before breakfast in the morning. It takes only 3-5 minutes of your time to carry out such gymnastics.
Each time articulation gymnastics is carried out in a playful way.- in the form of a fairy tale or story, accompanied by exercises. This is where your imagination is welcome - you can come up with any plot in which you include these exercises, and change the plot and characters in accordance with the interests of your baby!

Tips for conducting articulation gymnastics - it is important to know and perform:

Usually 2-3 exercises are performed at a time. Each exercise is performed multiple times.
If you add to the complex new exercise, then it is only one, and all other exercises should be familiar to the child by this time.
If the child finds it difficult to do old familiar exercises, then a new exercise is not introduced, but the old ones are fixed. But the consolidation takes place in a new form for the child - in a new plot, with new characters.
Articulation exercises should be done while sitting in front of a mirror.- You sit next to the child facing the mirror and show all the movements, the child can clearly see your face.
Be sure to monitor the symmetry of the face when performing gymnastics movements(the movements of the child should be symmetrical to the left and right half of the face). This is clearly visible to the child in the mirror, and he can track whether he is performing the movement correctly.
It is necessary to monitor during articulatory gymnastics the accuracy, smoothness of movements, give the child clear criteria for the correctness and incorrectness of the exercise, correct his mistakes, monitor the absence of unnecessary side movements, a good pace of gymnastics and the ability to move from one movement to another. If you just formally carry out the exercises, then their conduct is useless or of little use! After all, articulatory gymnastics is not called so for nothing. This is really "gymnastics", in which the correctness of movements is important, and not just playing with the tongue! By analogy: if you just lazily twist your arms, then this will not be physical education or fitness and will not have a good result for your health! The same is true in articulatory gymnastics. For the result, the quality of the movements is important, and not any movement in itself.
Articulatory gymnastics exercises, if performed correctly and accurately, are not easy for most children. Therefore, in no case do not scold the child, do not grieve that he does not succeed the first time. Everything needs to be learned! And there is one life law - everything that is developed, develops! Therefore, everything is still ahead of you! Praise the baby for what he is already doing - you can already make your tongue wide, your tongue has already begun to move quickly, etc.

Preparatory complex of articulation gymnastics includes exercises needed to pronounce any sounds. It is with such a preparatory complex that it is best to start doing articulation gymnastics in kindergarten or at home. The basic version of such a complex, which you can start doing at home:
Smile and keep your lips in a smile. At the same time, the front teeth are exposed and clearly visible.
Tube. Pulling the lips forward with a tube. With this movement, only the lips move!
Ringlet. Ring-shaped lips.
Alternation: smile - ring - tube.
Calm opening and closing of the mouth, lips in a smile. There should be no other unnecessary movements!
The tongue is wide.
The tongue is narrow.
Alternation: wide tongue - narrow tongue.
Tongue rise for the upper teeth.
Alternation of movements tongue up and down.
Alternation of movements tongue with the tip of the tongue lowered down: move the tongue deep into the mouth - bring it closer to the teeth.

If these movements are easy for the child, then you can immediately proceed to the complex for whistling sounds. If there are difficulties, then you need to train the basic movements from the preparatory complex. If the child cannot do the exercise with the alternation of “smile - ring - tube”, then I strongly advise you to consult with a speech therapist.

Complex of articulation exercises for whistling sounds p. h, c (Designed by Fomicheva M.V.).

Helpful Hints:

• In every exercise I give description of movements and typical mistakes(See "What to look out for"). After the description you will find video all exercises.
• First, do all these exercises yourself in front of a mirror, paying attention to all the nuances, master them, and then learn them with your children.
• Never scold a child for a mistake, just show once again the correct version of the exercise yourself, focusing on the necessary nuance, describe to the child in words how to perform the movements, what to follow. Children are quite calm about the “mistakes of a cheerful tongue” and are happy to “teach” him to do the movements correctly.

Exercise 1. Drive the ball into the goal.

Our task: in this exercise, the child will learn how to direct a long, directed stream of air.
Performing the exercise:
Put two cubes on the table - this is the gate. And next to the gate on the table in front of the child, put a cotton ball. The child stretches his lips forward with a tube, blows on the ball and tries to drive it into the gate of cubes.

Do not puff out your cheeks! The kid can hold them with his hands to control himself.
The stream of air should be long and without interruption - one long exhalation.

Exercise 2. Punish the naughty tongue.

Our task: teach the child to keep the tongue wide and relaxed. And continue to produce a directed air jet.
Performing the exercise:
The child, opening his mouth, puts his tongue on his lower lip and, slapping his lips, pronounces five-five-five. He then opens his mouth and keeps his tongue relaxed, wide and resting on his lower lip.
I don’t like to “punish” the tongue with the children, which is already trying its best to do it, so I do this exercise with the kids in a different story - the tongue rests and sings the song pi-py-py. Or I suggest that the child massage the tongue: pya-pya-pya. You can also come up with your own story.
What you need to pay attention to:
The edges of the tongue touch the corners of the mouth - the tongue is really very wide.
We pat the tongue with our lips several times on one exhalation, while the air stream goes smoothly, without interruption, without holding the breath.
The child can check the correctness of the exercise as follows - bring a cotton wool to his mouth, and it will deviate. Children always love this kind of self-examination.

Exercise 3. Wide tongue - pancake.

Our task: we will teach the child to keep the tongue in a calm, relaxed state.
Performing the exercise:
You need to smile, put the wide front edge of the tongue on the lower lip and hold it in this state from one to five to ten. Try it yourself first!
What you need to pay attention to when following the exercise in the mirror:
Lips should not be in a tense smile - a grimace, they should be relaxed in a smile.
The lower lip should not tuck in.
The tongue should not "run away" far - it just covers the lower lip.
The lateral edges of the tongue touch the corners of the mouth - it is relaxed.
If the exercise does not work out, then you must continue to do the previous one - “punish the tongue”. And come back to this exercise later.

Exercise 5. Who will drive the ball further?

Our task- we will work out the correct air stream - the air goes in the middle of the tongue, the air stream is smooth, long, continuous.
Performing the exercise:
You will need a fleece, which we will try to drive away. Cotton wool is our "ball". You need to smile, put the wide front edge of the tongue on the lower lip. Then pronounce the sound f for a long time. And blow off the cotton wool on the opposite edge of the table.
What you need to pay attention to:
The lower lip should not stretch over the lower teeth.
Do not puff out your cheeks!
It is necessary to pronounce the sound f, not x - it is with the sound f that the air stream is narrow, as we need.

Exercise 6. Brush your teeth.

Our task: we will teach the child to hold the tip of the tongue behind the lower teeth - this is required for the pronunciation of whistling sounds.
Performing the exercise:
Smile, open your mouth. Brush your bottom teeth with the tip of your tongue. First move the tongue from side to side, and then from bottom to top.
What you need to pay attention to:
Lips in a smile and motionless throughout the exercise.
When moving from side to side, the tongue is at the gums, and not at the top edge of the teeth.
When moving from bottom to top, the tip of the tongue should be wide and move from the root of the teeth upwards.

Sometimes articulatory gymnastics seems boring and uninteresting to adults. But not for children! I know from my own experience that children really like to look at themselves in the mirror, “learn the naughty tongue” and improve the technique of the exercise. And to all children! And if the plot of the exercises is changed, then interest in them always remains very large, and there is a kind of intrigue - what will be new this time? After all, the kid himself sees his results clearly, sees that every time he moves, he gets better and better, more and more accurate. And in this way, the baby explores himself, the structure of his body, which also captivates preschoolers.

How long does it take to prepare it is simply impossible to say. For one child, three times is enough, for another - a week, for the third - a month. But the better the organs of the articulatory apparatus are developed, the faster the baby will learn to pronounce all sounds correctly. Therefore, it’s not worth “spare” for this time and rush!

You can see the exercises of the articulation gymnastics complex for whistling sounds in the video below.

Video. Articulation gymnastics for whistling sounds (s, h, c)

Second phase. Sound setting.

At the second stage, those children who correctly pronounce the sound c, refine its articulation and pronunciation, and strengthen their skills. The same children who did not know how to pronounce it, learn to pronounce this sound - “whistle”.
It is very important that the child is aware of the correct articulation of the sound and can check himself. This has been possible since the age of 4. And in the speech development classes, all children are taught this (at least they should be taught even in the most ordinary kindergarten).
Why do children with good sound pronunciation need this knowledge and skills? To develop their ability to consciously control the organs of the articulatory apparatus, to clarify and consolidate the correct pronunciation, for a clearer and faster work of the organs of articulation, for good mobility of the organs of the articulatory apparatus. All these skills develop gradually and require training.

At 4 years old the child learns how teeth, lips, tongue work when pronouncing sounds in the form of a fairy tale - the game "Tales of the Merry tongue".

From 5 years old you can explain to children the correct articulation of sound already in the form we are used to (without a fairy tale) and ask the baby questions: “How does the mouth work? What does the tongue do, etc. At senior preschool age, it is already important not only to make a movement and be able to talk about the correct execution of the exercise, but also to monitor the smoothness and accuracy of movements, for quick switching to a new movement, for ease of movement.

Articulation gymnastics with children of any age can be completed with an exercise or game with onomatopoeia with this sound, which you will find below.

When staging a sound, the baby also learns the correct articulation of the sound.

Correct articulation of sound.

With the correct pronunciation of the sound with:
The mouth smiles (the corners of the mouth are slightly pulled back),
teeth are closed,
The tip of the tongue rests on the lower incisors (i.e., it is at the bottom, not at the top),
The anterior part of the back of the tongue is close to the alveoli and forms a gap with them (children know the alveoli as "tubercles" in the sky, at the top of the mouth),
In the middle of the tongue, when pronouncing a sound, a groove is formed along which air flows.
In contrast to the hissing sounds when pronouncing whistling sounds cold air stream! In order to determine which stream of air comes from the mouth, you need to bring your hand to your mouth with your palm down. Say the sound Sh yourself in this position, and then the sound C, and you will see the difference. You can show the baby this difference by blowing on his hand while pronouncing these two sounds. And then he himself will experiment with pleasure, how he does it - a cold stream of air or not.

For four-year-old children, you can set up sound C in the form of a game. Invite your child to ride a bike. To do this, we need to inflate the tires with air, which deflated a little. We will work as a pump and inflate the tires with air: ssss. Show yourself how the “pump works” - sss (show the articulation of this sound so that the child can clearly see your face). Ask the child: what is the position of the lips when the pump whistles? (In a smile). Are teeth visible? (Yes). Where is the tip of the tongue? (Bottom, hidden behind the lower teeth). What air goes - cool or hot? (Cool) - Bring the back of your hand to your mouth. Compare with X sound - when is the air warmer at X sound or C pump sound?
Invite the child to “take the pump” (pantomime is an imaginary action) and “pump up the tires with the pump” - whistle ssss.
Very often, even such a refinement of the correct sound pronunciation of the sound C in the game "Pump" is enough for a four-year-old child to begin to pronounce the sound correctly!

It happens that “playing the pump” is not enough and you need to clarify the articulation of the sound individually, in front of a mirror. When staging sound by imitation you can offer the baby to blow on a slightly protruding wide tongue, imitating you. After that, you need to translate the tongue behind the lower teeth. “Look where my tongue is. Do you see teeth? Do the same. Smile so your teeth show. Press the wide tongue to the front teeth at the top. Well done! Now cover your mouth and let's blow. Bring your hand to your chin - can you feel the air coming in? Place the cotton pad on the child's chin so that a stream of air hits it. If the child is blowing weakly, then ask him to blow harder, but do not puff out his cheeks. So, by imitation, the child will get the correct sound s. Repeat this sound 5-6 times with pauses.

It is not necessary to expect that the sound C that appeared by imitation will immediately appear in the child's speech. For a child, this is just the sound of a pump in the game! Even the next day, the baby may already forget everything, and you will have to show the sound production exercise again. And ask him to whistle like a pump, make noise like a vacuum cleaner, blow and whistle like the wind, etc. In order for the sound from to enter the speech of the child, games and game exercises are needed to automate it, which I will discuss in the next article. After all, just repeating words and phrases with sound is not at all interesting for a baby! And still need to teach the child to distinguish between close and similar sounds, so as not to confuse them in speech. We will also talk about this in the continuation of this article.

And in the end I want to offer you two videos about making whistling sounds with a demonstration of simple and affordable techniques.

How to teach a child of 3-4 years old to speak the whistling sounds C and Z correctly? Video

If a child is good at articulation gymnastics movements, then, as a rule, a few simple tricks allow him to almost immediately learn how to correctly pronounce whistling sounds from and to. You will learn how to teach a child at home to speak the sound correctly and correct its pronunciation from the video of Irina Denisova. She shares some professional speech therapy secrets with her parents.

If you managed to successfully call the sound, then it remains only to automate its correct pronunciation in syllables, words and phrases. You can find out about games and exercises for automating the sounds C and C in a child’s speech in the article.

If the pronunciation of many sounds is disturbed in a child, articulation exercises are very difficult for him, and it is not possible to call the “correct” sound, then you definitely need to contact a speech therapist to a children's clinic or a speech therapy kindergarten. You can always find out the addresses of all institutions where you can get help from a speech therapist free of charge at the district or city department of education.

And at the end of the article - a few songs for speech classes with children according to the sound s.

If something doesn’t work out for a child, don’t move on to the next stage of learning, but continue to practice skills in the exercises you stopped at.

How to teach a child to say letters without “swallowing” and to pronounce the letters R and L correctly?

If it is difficult for your child to pronounce R or L, then a special set of exercises to strengthen the muscles of the tongue, classes for the correct pronunciation of letters in syllables and syllables, as well as useful children's tongue twisters to improve diction will help solve this problem.

One of the most common problems parents of preschoolers face is how to teach their child to pronounce letters correctly. Usually, children cannot pronounce the “tricky” letters R and L correctly for a very long time. And in this article we will teach you step by step to conduct classes with your baby to improve diction and correct pronunciation of letters. After you carefully familiarize yourself with the methods that will help you teach your child to pronounce the letter r and l, the help of a children's speech therapist may not be needed at all.

The “difficult” letter P for most children remains unlearned longer than all other letters. As a rule, problems with the correct pronunciation of the letter P appear at a time when the baby's speech is just beginning to develop, at the stage of basic development. You can’t miss this time and put off learning the correct pronunciation of letters on the back burner, so that the child develops the skills to express his thoughts in a well-delivered speech and so that burr is not fixed.

When teaching a baby to pronounce the letters R and L correctly, it is important to organize the classes correctly: You can not overwork the child, work with him for no more than 15 minutes daily;
Teaching the correct pronunciation of letters should be organized in a playful way;
The tone in the process of teaching a baby should not be intrusive and must be friendly.

So, with the help of the following 6 steps, you can teach your child to pronounce the letter r correctly:

STEP ONE

Preparation for classes: facial massage

Before teaching the child to speak letters correctly, we will give him a massage that warms up the muscles of the face. The baby is facing you, his eyes are directly opposite yours.
We massage and voice all the actions: Slowly and gently stroke the superciliary area of ​​​​the baby’s forehead with warm fingertips and at the same time say: “This is how much we love ourselves, this is how we tremblingly love ourselves ...” Then we begin to gently massage the wings of the nose and move our fingers in the direction of the maxillary sinuses, while saying: “Oh, what a nice nose we have, that’s what a cute snub nose we have ...” After that, with massaging movements, smooth the baby’s skin around the cheekbones, lips, cheeks and up to the ears, and then in the opposite direction. At the same time, say: “Sponges, our lips, blur in a smile! Our mouth is a mouth, he is not silent at all! Ears are our ears, you are always on top!

STEP TWO

Warm-up exercises

We have already done a warming massage for the facial muscles for the baby. Let's start with the first exercises.

The child is still facing you, the posture is straight and his eyes are at the level of yours.

These exercises will help to properly strengthen the muscles of the baby's tongue and will contribute to the development of forced vibration of the very tip of the tongue.

Ask the baby to alternately get the lower teeth, then the upper ones with the tip of the tongue (30-40 times).

Then the baby sharply slaps his tongue over the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe palate where the upper row of teeth is located, while pronouncing the letter D. Be sure to demonstrate all the actions so that the baby accurately performs the exercises.

Further. Ask the baby to stick out his tongue a little, while his lips are closed. The child strongly pushes air out of the mouth, while by inertia the tip of the tongue should vibrate. In subsequent exercises, the baby will independently learn to reproduce this sound without pushing air out of the mouth.

STEP THREE

Basic exercises to improve the mobility of the tongue and consolidate the skills to pronounce the letter r correctly

* And now we will bring more elements of the game into the training. Ask the child to show his tongue - let him relax it a little and chat with it with a sound coming out between his teeth, as if teasing. Then arrange a competition with the baby - which of you will stick out your tongue further.

* An excellent activity that will help your baby learn to pronounce the letter P faster is to imitate the clatter of horse hooves, characteristically clattering with the tongue. Teach your child to click the tongue and ask him to repeat these sounds fifteen times.

* How to learn to pronounce the letter p in a playful way with a proven method? An excellent exercise - the baby moves his thumb in different directions, putting it under his tongue. At the same time, the child tries to pronounce the letter P (growl, like a running car engine).

* Another good exercise with which you can learn the correct pronunciation of the letter P in a playful way and strengthen the muscles of the tongue. Ask the baby to show a smile by stretching the lips wider and “clean” the teeth with the tip of the tongue, first from the outside, and then from the inside. It is advisable to repeat the exercise 20-25 times. The lower jaw should not move.

STEP FOUR

How to teach a child to pronounce all the letters, including R? We continue to strengthen the muscles of the tongue and develop its mobility.

- Ask the child to open his mouth wider and show his teeth. The sides of the tongue are located on the molars, and the tip is on the surface of the front teeth. Ask the child to make the tongue “strong” for ten seconds, and then relax briefly. Repeat the exercise with the baby (6-7 times).

- This exercise to strengthen the muscles of the tongue will be a little more difficult for the baby. But having mastered it, the child will quickly learn to pronounce the letter r and l correctly.
The exercise is as follows - the baby, as it were, "sucks" the surface of the tongue to the palate, and then "tears" it from the palate with a characteristic click. Ten times we do this exercise at a slow pace, then we speed up and slow down again (only 30-35 repetitions at a different pace).

- Now ask the child to slightly open the lips and lightly bite the tip of the tongue (15-20 repetitions)

- The final exercise to strengthen the muscles of the tongue - the baby blows out the air with force, while the tongue is between the lips. It is desirable to ensure that the tongue vibrates.

STEP FIVE

And now we are moving from "physical" exercises for the language to mastering the skills of the correct pronunciation of the letter P in different syllables and short combinations.

First, rehearse with your child the skill of correctly pronouncing R in an open syllable - ro, ra.
Then try to pronounce P with solid consonants - dr, tr.
When the baby consolidates these skills, move on to learning the correct pronunciation of words (short, known to the child) with these syllables. These exercises hone the technique of correct speech well and help teach the child to pronounce the letter r.

STEP SIX

Children's tongue twisters for the development of speech and diction in a child.

If the baby is already good at pronouncing the letter P, but sometimes (during a conversation) he “chews” it or pronounces it incorrectly, then it's time to introduce the child to tongue twisters.

Popular tongue twisters remarkably eliminate speech defects, save the child from tongue-tied tongue, contribute to the development of skills in the correct pronunciation of letters and words, and are considered the most effective method of “honing” the articulation of different sounds.

If the baby can already memorize short nursery rhymes, then you may well begin to get acquainted with tongue twisters. But you need to memorize tongue twisters in stages - at first the baby repeats the tongue twister (after you) very slowly. At the same time, the child must understand the meaning of the memorized text. We gradually increase the pace of pronouncing the tongue twister, but you must correct the articulation and diction. Below you will find the most suitable tongue twisters with which you can teach your child to pronounce letters, including the “complex” letter P:

5 EXERCISES YOU CAN LEARN YOUR LETTER L

Before teaching a child to speak letters, do not forget that a preschooler learns the material more easily in a playful way of learning. Sometimes the baby does not pronounce the letter L correctly for a long time. There are effective exercises to solve this problem. The method is in many ways similar to practicing the skills of the correct pronunciation of the letter R.

It is desirable to perform each exercise for ten seconds 5-7 times. The whole complex - 3 times from start to finish step by step. (daily 2 times)

Exercise 1

We practice the skill of lifting the tongue up and strengthen the muscles of the tongue.
Ask your child to show you their teeth with a big smile. The child's tongue touches the palate and clicks like a horse's hooves on the pavement.

Exercise 2

We “hone” the baby’s skill to make the tongue wide, developing the ability to quickly strain and relax the muscles of the tongue.
Ask the child to open his mouth a little and stick his tongue out far, and then put it on the bottom lip with a wide edge. Ask the baby to hold the tongue in this position for 5 seconds.

Exercise 3

Now we teach the child to exhale air in thin streams along the edges of the tongue.
Having slightly opened his mouth, the child lightly bites the tip of the tongue with his front teeth and begins to blow, increasing the pace and strength. Control the strength and direction of the air jet with a light feather (do not forget about the game element in teaching a small child)

Exercise 4

We develop the skill of quickly changing the position of the tongue in the baby. This exercise is necessary to strengthen the muscles of the tongue so that the baby can easily and quickly combine the letter L with different vowels - U, A, O, Y

the child opens his mouth, strongly rests with the tip of the tongue against the base of the upper teeth from the inside, and then quickly changes the position of the tongue, resting its tip against the base of the lower teeth. At first, the exercise is performed slowly, then we accelerate the pace.

Exercise 5

Now we turn to learning the correct pronunciation of the letter L in words and syllables. Words and syllables (lu-lu-lu-lu, la-la-la-la, lo-lo-lo-lo, la-lo-lu-la-lo-lu) are even better to sing than to say.
After that, open a children's picture book, the objects in which contain the letter L in their names in various combinations with other letters. Let the kid try to tell something about each object so that its name occurs in each sentence.

Now you know how to correctly and quickly teach a child to pronounce "complex" letters, including the letters R and L. Let's highlight 3 key points that form the foundation for developing a child's pronunciation skills of different letters: exercises to strengthen the muscles of the tongue and its mobility , teaching the child the correct pronunciation of a particular letter in different syllables, memorizing tongue twisters and their frequent repetition (slowly-quickly). If the child does not succeed, do not proceed to the next stage of training, but continue to develop the skills in the exercises where you stopped.

Quite often, parents complain that children have problems pronouncing sounds that are difficult for them. As a rule, hissing sounds are the greatest difficulty for them; in particular, the questions of parents are related to how to teach a child to pronounce the letters “s”, “k” and others correctly. The development of this skill should be given due attention in childhood.

Despite the fact that most parents seek speech therapy help most often when the child is already 5 years old, most pediatricians agree that work on sound pronunciation should be started much earlier.

This will not allow the incorrect pronunciation of the sound to gain a foothold. To carry out such activities, it is not at all necessary to have special skills - it is enough to learn only a few simple tricks.

How to conduct speech therapy classes with a child? Tips and Tricks for Parents

How to teach a child to speak hissing, including the letter c? Any parent can provide simple speech therapy assistance to a child. However, the success of the events will largely depend on how well they are carried out.

If the child does not have complex speech disorders and can pronounce most of the sounds, home remedial classes with the parent will be quite enough to bring the sound pronunciation back to normal. In this case, the correct setting of the sound will be achieved by automating pronunciation.

Exercises for the development of sound pronunciation skills are useful not only for children who have certain speech problems, but also for quite healthy ones, due to the fact that they perfectly develop the articulatory apparatus, making it more mobile and flexible.

In the event that a child has more serious violations of sound pronunciation, and in speech he makes a large number of grammatical errors, solving the problem on his own is still quite risky. And, the sooner parents turn to a speech therapist for help in solving the problem, the more benefit it will bring to the child. And the easier it will be to teach him pronunciation and speak correctly.

How is work on sound pronunciation built?

• First you need to find out which organs of speech are involved in the pronunciation of sounds that cause problems in the child. You will need to work on them first of all with the help of articulatory gymnastics for one or another letter.
• The stage of direct sound production.
• The stage of sound amplification and its learning in special speech therapy verses, texts, songs, etc.

Let us consider in more detail how to teach a child to pronounce the letter s easily and freely.

Articulation gymnastics and its features

As a rule, difficulties in pronouncing the sound “s” are associated with insufficient mobility of the organs of the articulatory apparatus. This must be done with the help of specially organized gymnastics. What is the best way to conduct classes?

1. A strict sequence of exercises and regularity are the main principles that ensure the effectiveness of exercises for the organs of speech. It is best to use ready-made sets of exercises that teach you to pronounce certain sounds. They are selected taking into account the age and other characteristics of the child.
2. In order for the child to be more willing to participate in the lesson, it is best to teach him to speak in a playful way, supplementing him with interesting riddles for the desired letter, songs, nursery rhymes and jokes
3. Do not overload your child with exercises. It is better to do no more than 2-3 in one lesson, but with multiple repetitions - it is easier to teach a child something new.
4. It is possible to introduce new exercises for the letter “c” only after the child has already properly mastered all the previous ones and copes with them without much effort.
5. In order for the child to be able to see and correctly understand the technique of the exercises proposed to him and pronounce the sounds, it is best to use a mirror for classes
6. When performing exercises, it is important to monitor the symmetry of the child's face, the accuracy and smoothness of movements, and the correct pace. Without this, the effectiveness of the exercises will be minimized.

Useful advice: Before you start articulation gymnastics, you need to do several exercises in order to “warm up” the organs of speech: a simple smile, stretching your lips with a tube or a ring, raising your tongue will prepare them well for the exercises, and improve your student's results.

After that, you can begin the articulation gymnastics itself (in this case, we will consider the complex of Fomicheva M.V.). Such exercises should teach the child the correct pronunciation.

"Push the ball into the goal"

The exercise teaches the child to direct the stream of air and pronounce hissing sounds. Improvised "gates" of cubes are installed on the table. The task of the child is to drive a cotton ball (“ball”) into them, stretching his lips forward and directing a stream of air at him. It is important that at the same time the child does not puff out his cheeks, and the action is carried out in one go.

Exercise allows you to relax the tongue, as well as form a directed air flow. The child puts the tongue on the lower lip and, holding the mouth slightly open, says "five-five-five." It is important that the lip on which the tongue lies does not tuck, and the air flow goes as smoothly as possible, without interruptions.

Wide tongue

The wide edge of the tongue is placed on the lower lip and held in this position for up to 5-10 seconds. In this case, the organs of the articulatory apparatus should be as relaxed as possible, and the smile should be free from tension.

Advice to parents: Be patient and try to treat these activities as an exciting game.

Remember that your baby is improving, for him this is something new, which he does for the first time in his life. Try to understand that for him this is connected with serious efforts, and the more interesting this activity will be for him, the greater your chances of a quick result.

Articulatory gymnastics exercises that teach you to pronounce sounds are quite complex and unusual for a child. That is why you should not expect that he will complete them the first time and completely without errors. In order to teach a child to speak correctly, you need to think over a lesson-game plan. And in case of failure, do not scold him - it is better to support him and offer to try again. Over time, the child will learn both the letter and the corresponding sound.
