About this worksheet
Nine short phrases with CH words in blue, each with a picture.
What kids practice
Articulation means making speech sounds clearly. For the CH sound, the lips push out round, the tongue presses up behind the top teeth to stop the air, and then the air pops out fast with the voice off, like a sneeze: ah-choo! Many children master CH between ages 5 and 7, so it's common to still be working on it in 2nd grade. A child who is practicing CH often says sh (shair for chair), t (tair) or ts (tsair). These sheets climb the same ladder speech therapists use: the sound alone, then syllables, words, phrases, sentences, reading and everyday talking. Common Core doesn't cover speech sounds, so these sheets have no Common Core code.
Watch for
- Saying sh for ch (shair for chair). CH is short: a tiny t that pops into sh.
- Saying t for ch (tair for chair). Round the lips and let the air pop out.
- Moving up too fast. If CH slips in sentences, practice phrases for a few more days.
- If your child is hard to understand, frustrated when talking, or not improving, ask a speech-language pathologist for an evaluation.
It's free to print, as many copies as you need. See the full articulation: the CH sound guide for 2nd grade.
