[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone have any link/books/tips they would personally recommend for  helping kids with pronunciation of letter sounds? DD will be 3 in May and as of late she  talks up a storm and I genuinely think she’s on track (ie probably doesn’t require an evaluation and wouldn’t qualify for services yet) but she really struggles to pronounce a lot of sounds correctly and it’s breaking my heart how much she wants to tell me and how little I (or anyone else) can understand. I used to be fluent in her language but her conversational ability has exploded in the past two months and I just can’t keep up with all her unique pronunciations. She can’t say K (hard C), G, L, Sh or T and Th sounds, among other issues.

My only motivation here is how frustrated she seems when I keep guessing wrong and constantly ask her if she can show me what she’s talking about because I can’t figure how what she’s saying. I try to articulate clearly and look at her when I’m speaking so she can learn naturally but if I knew some correct methods to speed even a few of these letter sounds along for her I think it would be a huge help. Poor kid can’t even say her own name in a way that other people can understand.  [/quote]

She’s on target:

But if she’s continually frustrated or you need to “translate” for other other people, call early intervention now.  Or get her screened by childfind after May.[/quote]
