How to Practice Final Position /F/ Words

Strategies for practicing the /F/ sound at the end of words.

1

Have your child hold the /F/ sound slightly longer at the end of the word so they can feel the correct tongue and lip position.

2

Practice the ending sound in isolation first, then add the rest of the word before it. For example, say "...F" then "beef".

3

Many children drop the final sound in words. Encourage your child to "finish" every word by exaggerating the ending.

4

Play a sorting game: show your child pictures and have them sort words that end with the /F/ sound versus words that do not.

5

Use rhyming words to reinforce the /F/ ending sound pattern.
