F Reading Paragraphs

Saxophone Loving Fish

Philip lived on a farm. He loved to fish on Friday.

That Friday after breakfast, Philip was walking through the forest to his favorite fishing hole when he heard a saxophone. Philip put his finger to his mouth fast and said, "Shhhhh, you'll scare the fish away!" "Fish can hear a leaf fall off of a tree," he said.

The little girl playing the saxophone said, "I'm Fay, and the fish like my music."

Philip looked into the water and saw five fish swimming. He began to laugh and said, "Will you meet me here every Friday?"

Zoo Fire

They heard the animals like the smell of coffee, breakfast, waffles, and muffins, and may try to find the animals using these four things. They want to find the animals fast.

This list of functional words was professionally selected to be the most useful for a child or adult who has difficulty with producing the "F" sound.

We encourage you to use this list when practicing at home.

Doing home practice will help your child make much faster progress toward correct production.

Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) are only able to see students/clients 30-60 mins (or less) per week.

This is not enough time for your child to overcome an articulation disorder with the "F" sound. But with high caseloads...

...it's all SLPs can do.

There's only so much time in the day.

Every day that your child goes without practice it becomes more and more difficult to correct an "F" error because he/she continues to say it incorrectly.
