TEACHING THE ‘TH ’ SOUND
The ‘TH’ sound is somewhat easy to teach because it is easy to see whether the child is putting her tongue between her teeth or not. Model the sound for the child, saying “Just put your tongue between your teeth a little bit and blow”.
You can hold up a mirror for the child to see whether the tongue is in the right place or not.
There are two types of ‘TH’ sounds – a voiced ‘TH’, like the sound in the word ‘THE’, and an unvoiced ‘TH’, like the sound in the word ‘THUMB’. Tell the child that a voiced sound is when you can feel your neck vibrate because you are making a humming sound while you blow.
The best way to practice the ‘TH’ sound is to first practice making the sound by itself, then in words, then in sentences.
Good luck!
