September Kindergarten Speech Activities You Can Do At Home
Three activity ideas you can do with your kindergartener to boost their speech and language skills.
1: Beginning Sounds
Help your child learn to read by listening to the sounds in words. Can they tell the beginning sound and the ending sounds in words? Speech: Use this page to target the fronting of /k/ or beginning k and t words.
2: More Than One
More Than One. When we want to express that there is more than one of something, we add a plural –s (or –es) to the end of a word. This extra sound is a marker that your child understands this concept. If your child has difficulty producing the /s/ sound, it may be difficult for them to communicate the concept of more than one. Speech: Use this page to target final s in words or ks blends.
3: Following Directions
You don’t have to wait until you child starts school to introduce them to words like “Get your backpack” or “Raise your hand.” The first few weeks of school can be stressful and overwhelming. Help your child by developing their listening skills.
