About this worksheet
Two picture bingo boards packed with L words.
What kids practice
Articulation means making speech sounds clearly. For the L sound, the tongue tip lifts to the bump just behind the top teeth while the voice is on. Many children master L between ages 5 and 7, so it's common to still be working on it in 2nd grade. A child who is practicing L often says w or y instead (wion for lion, yeg for leg). 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 w or y for l. Go back to la-la-la in the mirror.
- Keeping the tongue tip down. Have your child touch the bump with a finger, then with the tongue.
- Moving up too fast. If L 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 l sound guide for 2nd grade.
