What kids practice
Articulation means making speech sounds clearly. To make the ng sound, the back of the tongue lifts like for k and the sound hums out through the nose. Most children say it by about age 4. A child who is still working on it often says n for ng (rin for ring, kin for king). This set walks through the steps speech therapists use: the sound by itself, then syllables, words, phrases, sentences and finally everyday talking. Common Core doesn't cover speech sounds, so these sheets have no Common Core code.
Watch for
- Moving up too fast. If the sound slips in sentences, go back to phrases for a few days.
- Correcting every word in everyday talk. Save corrections for practice time and keep conversation fun.
- Saying the sound right alone but not in words. That's normal. Syllables are the bridge.
- If your child is hard to understand, frustrated when talking, or not improving, ask your pediatrician or a speech-language pathologist for an evaluation.
It's free to print, as many copies as you need. See the full articulation: the NG sound guide for 1st grade.
