Speech therapy pronunciation of the letter z. Consultation for parents “How to make difficult sounds for a child? Learning to move your lips correctly

When pronouncing the sound “sh” correctly, the tongue should occupy a certain position in the mouth. It is spread wide, and the tip is raised towards the hard palate, and forms a gap with it behind the upper teeth. The lateral edges of the tongue are pressed against the upper incisors.

How to teach a child to say the letter “sh” at home - do tongue exercises with him

If the baby cannot pronounce the sound correctly, articulation gymnastics is needed. For home exercises, special exercises are used that train the speech apparatus. The child should perform them in front of the mirror to see how he can repeat what his mother shows:

• “fence” - the baby must close his teeth and show his mother what kind of “fence” he has made;
• “tube” - the child stretches his lips forward like a tube, then quickly alternates between the “tube” and “fence” exercises;
• “lazy tongue” - the tongue needs to be stuck out of the mouth and placed on the lower lip, completely relaxed;
• “bucket” - we bend the relaxed tongue up and place it behind the upper teeth, blow on it, which produces the sound “sh”.

In addition to the basic exercises given, you can use others. When the child can easily and correctly repeat all the tasks, they move on to making the sound “sh”.

Lessons on making the sound “sh”

A child's education cannot be achieved without play. First you need to check your attentiveness and clarity of perception. Say words with and without the letter “sh” in any order. Invite your child to clap his hands when he hears words that contain the sound “sh”.

Be sure to praise your child for his successes.

Ask your child to use his hand to depict a hissing snake, which must follow the drawn labyrinth to the goal.

Is it possible to deal with the problem of speech development in a baby at home?

It’s rare that a parent doesn’t encounter problems with their child’s speech development. But not every one of them has the opportunity to study with a speech therapist. In this case, you can conduct classes at home.

How to quickly teach a child to speak?

1. Expanding our horizons. The child should walk in different places as much as possible. See different environments, people, animals, nature. This is how a stock of knowledge about the environment is formed. Children who see and feel more find it much easier to even express their feelings. The more emotions and experience, the sooner the baby will start babbling.
2. We constantly talk with the child. If you sit with your child in silence, he will talk much later. The baby should always hear spoken language. We communicate with the child, saying everything out loud, what we see, what we do
3. We read books. We do this with expression, with explanatory comments. Kids love to listen to the same fairy tales and poems several times. For children this is the easiest method of perception
4. Singing songs. The kids love to sing. We sing while playing the instrument or just listen and sing, encouraging the baby to support you. This is one of the best options, as children love music very much.
5. We designate objects of attention. The Russian language is vast. In order for the child to remember at least a few words to begin with, we often concentrate attention on some frequently repeated object. A steam locomotive has driven, a boy is walking, a dog is walking, etc. After this, we be sure to ask the child what the name of this object is.
6. We speak in a literate, adult language. We don’t babysit and don’t speak in the language of a baby. The words “abaca” instead of dog, etc. We don’t repeat, we speak correctly. Without putting a strong emphasis on it
7. Let's listen to what the child says! An important condition for mom and dad is the ability to listen carefully and hear everything the baby says. Whenever addressing parents, the child should feel respect and attention. A child feels inattention very clearly. Therefore, we stop all communication if a child comes with any question or request. Even if it is completely unclear what the baby is babbling. Communication itself is important
8. We instill in the child the ability to listen. To develop a child’s speech in relation to intonation, it is necessary to teach listening. This applies not only to the speech of mom and dad, but also to all extraneous sounds. At this moment it is important to explain each sound
9. Reciprocal conversation. If it is not clear what the child is talking about, we read various signs that explain the child. If the baby takes off his pants and babbles something in his own language, perhaps he wants to write. We ask him about this. And we draw conclusions based on his further reaction. We just avoid the words “what are you babbling there, I don’t understand anything, leave me alone.” This may discourage mutual dialogue
10. We don't rush things. Every parent has a desire to hear their baby's conversation faster. But not every mom and dad have patience. There is no need to rush the baby, and there is no need to delay it. Many mothers and fathers say out of impatience: “Well, why are you silent!”, “What kind of nonsense are you talking, where did you pick up these phrases?” The child will feel offended by this. He will lose the desire for the process of learning spoken language.

How to teach a child to speak without a speech therapist?

How to teach a child to speak without a speech therapist? General useful rules when teaching a child at home:

1. The eyes of the baby and mother should be at the same level. This will make it easier for the baby to observe all the manipulations being performed.
2. We conduct classes every day, in a playful way. 10 to 15 minutes
3. We perform facial massage and gymnastics daily. We pronounce sounds and tongue twisters at least 4 times a week

Face massage

As a separate element, massage is not a special factor, but together with articulatory gymnastics and voice-speech training it has a positive effect on correct speech production.

When doing a massage, we pronounce our movements:

• Gently stroking your eyebrows with your fingers, we say: “This is how we love ourselves, this is how we love ourselves.” Next, stroking along the nose, we say: “Nice little nose, we have such a snub nose.” We massage around the lips, cheeks to ears: “Our smiling mouth, still a talker”

We gently tap the same areas of the face with our fingers. Counter and opposite movements. We constantly communicate with the child: “We are beautiful! We are happy! This is how we caressed ourselves!”

Gymnastics for clear and correct pronunciation

• On the inflated, balloon-like cheeks, we give a massage
• We pipe like a train, we pull our lips forward. We twist them first in one direction, then in the other.
• We smile together with the baby. Then we collect the lips with a bow. We do it several times
• We kiss the child, tensing our lips with a tube, and then relaxing
  We run our tongue over our lips in one direction and the other.
• Extend the tongue to the upper lip, then to the lower lip. Also left and right
• At the end, we do something like washing our face. The child must repeat

Let's move on to the pronunciation of vowels

The child has practically no problems pronouncing these letters. But you still need to work out.

• Without tension, not long and sharply pronounce - A - a - a
  Evenly, while exhaling, we pronounce for a long time - Aaaaaa - a long sound in one breath, without raising or lowering the intonation. Repeat in the same way with all vowels.

Gymnastics with consonants

We carry out pronouncing paired syllables like a tongue twister. It’s better to alternate: first we pronounce a syllable, then a tongue twister starting with that letter.
P – Pu-po-pa-pe-pi-py V – Vu-vo-va-ve-vi-vy F – Fu-fo-fa-fe-fi-fy G – Gu-go-ga-ge-gi -by K – Ku-ko-ka-ke-ki-by D – Du-do-da-de-di-dy T – Tu-to-ta-te-ti-you Z – Zhu-jo-zha-zhe -zhi-zhy B – Bu-bo-ba-be-bi-by Sh –
Shu-sho-sha-she-shi-shy Z – Zu-zo-za-ze-zi-zy S – Su-so-sa-se-si-sy

The advantage of such classes is that they can be carried out anywhere: in a clinic, on an airplane, walking down the street.

• Very important for speech development fine motor skills.
• We massage the child’s palms with our hands and soft brushes
• We glue applications, collect cereals, string small beads on a thread, sculpt from plasticine, use a variety of nursery rhymes, for example “Magpie-Crow”

• Let the child hold the pen cap between his teeth. Then we ask the child to blow
• We ask the baby to stretch his mouth in a smile and rest his tongue on his lower teeth. We place a match on the tip of the tongue and ask the child to blow strongly on its base. A clear “s” sound is produced. Later, when you get the result, you can do this exercise without a match.

How to teach a child to say the letter g?

• As the baby pronounces the syllable “yes,” we gradually move the tongue with a teaspoon, pressing on the front of its back. When moving the tongue, the syllable “dia” will appear first, then “cha”, and after it “ha”

• You should pay attention to the correct pronunciation of this letter no earlier than 5-6 years
• We pronounce this letter while smiling. We press the tip of the tongue to the palate. We show the baby this position and at the same time ask him to hum. Over time, we will hear the child pronounce “l”
• If your baby has a hard time pronouncing the hard sound “l,” we do tongue exercises. We show the baby how to lick his lips, stroke the palate and teeth with his tongue. We are trying to reach our nose with our tongue
• In order for the child to remember the correct pronunciation of this sound, when singing la-la-la, we ask him to slightly bite his tongue. This way your baby will easily remember the correct position of the tongue.

• To correctly pronounce the letter “sh”, we show the baby how to position the tongue by pressing it to the lower lip, while simultaneously raising the tip and sides of the tongue
• We do exercises, depicting a smile on the lips
• Imitating chewing movements

Video: Staging sound sh. How to teach a child to pronounce the sound sh?

1. We focus on articulation. We clearly, clearly and correctly pronounce words that the baby does not pronounce correctly. Please pronounce it correctly
2. When communicating, we do not replace complex words with simple ones. If we talk about different objects, for example, carrots, tomatoes, cabbage, we do not generalize that these are vegetables. We teach our children different names of objects
3. We replenish the child's vocabulary with verbs. We speak not in nouns, but in short sentences. For example, a tiger growls (walks, sleeps, plays)
4. We use signs of objects in colloquial speech: watermelon - sweet, juicy, big
5. We explain what oppositions are. The floor is hard and the toy is soft. The car is driving and the plane is flying
6. We replenish the child’s vocabulary, read fairy tales and poems

Using all the methods listed in the article, with regular practice, you can easily solve minor problems in speech development.

With very large speech deviations, you cannot do without the help of a specialist.

As they grow up, our children expand their vocabulary more and more. Their need to talk is growing every day. Unfortunately, most babies have problems pronouncing certain sounds. Is it possible to teach a baby to pronounce sounds correctly at home or will the help of a speech therapist be needed to eliminate speech defects?

What causes incorrect pronunciation?

The most common mistake adults make when communicating with their child is imitating his speech. We lisp with the little man, often distorting the words. It turns out that our speech drops to the level of a baby. Instead of speaking with young children as best we can, pronouncing all sounds and letters clearly, we deliberately make our speech unclear.

Since the child does not hear the correct speech from you, he will not be able to remember it and repeat it. Therefore, in order for your baby to learn to speak correctly, your speech must be clear and intelligible.

The reason for the incorrect reproduction of individual sounds may be a structural feature of the speech apparatus

• The ligament under the tongue is shorter than it should be, making it difficult to move.
• Normal speech is hampered by the size of the tongue (too small or, on the contrary, too large).
• Very thin or, conversely, plump lips, which makes their articulation difficult.
• Deviations in the structure of the teeth or jaw.
• A defect in the hearing aid that prevents you from hearing certain sounds and, therefore, from pronouncing them correctly.

Parents can easily correct some speech defects on their own. The baby experiences the main difficulties when pronouncing hissing sounds - Zh, Ch, Sh, Shch, the letters P, as well as Z, G, K, L, S and C.

How to help your child pronounce hissing sounds?

Teaching a child to pronounce the letters Zh, Ch, Sh, and Shch is a little easier than, for example, the letter R. Most often, children have a problem with the pronunciation of hissing Zh and Sh. At the same time, the sound Sh is not as annoying to the ear as the incorrectly pronounced Zh .

Usually the problem with hissing occurs because the baby is unable to relax the tongue and stretch it so that the edges touch the upper lateral teeth.

Therefore, the baby needs to be taught a few simple exercises.

1. Let's relax the tongue . Place your tongue on your lower teeth, like a pancake, and tap it with your upper teeth, saying “Ta-ta-ta.” After this, the tongue should lie relaxed. Then you need to slap it with your upper lip and say “Pa-pa-pa.”
2. Lifting the tip of the tongue upward . To complete the task, you need chewing candy or gum (it will be a good motivation for your child). You need him to open his mouth 2-3 cm, spread his tongue over his lower lip, sticking out its tip. Place a piece of candy on it and ask your child to stick it to the roof of his mouth behind his upper teeth. Make sure your baby only uses his tongue and not his jaw.
3. Blow air through the middle of the tongue . Place a small piece of cotton wool on the table. Let the baby smile and position the tongue as in the previous task. The baby’s task is to blow the cotton wool to the other end of the table without puffing out his cheeks. At the same time, he must pronounce something like the letter F.
4. Blowing cotton from your nose . The child opens his mouth slightly, places his tongue so that there is a groove in the middle of it, and the edges almost meet. We place a piece of cotton wool on the nose. The baby should take a deep breath of air through his nose and exhale sharply through his mouth. The cotton wool should fly up.
5. We pronounce the sounds Zh and Sh . Ask the baby to pronounce the syllable SA, the tongue should be behind the teeth at this time. Then you need to move the tongue deeper into your mouth. As we move towards the alveoli, the sound from S turns into Sh. To get the sound Zh, we repeat the exercises, first pronouncing the syllable ZA.
6. More words with Zh and Sh . Remember or come up with rhymes or tongue twisters where the letters Zh and Sh are often found in words. Repeat them with your child several times.
7. We pronounce the letter H . If your baby has increased tongue tone, it will be more difficult for him to cope with the exercise at first. The sound CH consists of TH and Sh. First, the tongue should hit the alveoli, pronouncing TH, and then relax, passing the sound Sh through the slit. These two sounds, first slowly and then faster, should merge into one Ch. After several trainings, the baby will succeed !

Practice your pronunciation with different short rhymes. For example:

• There were jackdaws visiting the wolf cubs,
• There were wolf cubs visiting the jackdaw cubs,
• Now the wolf cubs are making noise like jackdaws,
• And like wolf cubs, the jackdaw cubs are silent.

Learning to pronounce the letter R

The baby begins to pronounce the letter R well only at the age of 5-6 years. If your baby has not yet reached this age, do not panic ahead of time.

There are usually some problems associated with the letter P

• The little man does not make a growling sound at all , it simply falls out of his words. This happens when the letter P is located between vowels. For example, a garage sounds like “ha - already”.
• The baby replaces the sound R with L, Y or Y . It turns out that instead of a rose - “vine”, red - “yzhy”, magpie - “jay”.
• The baby pronounces the sound R, but not the way it should sound in Russian . It either vibrates, like the British, or grates, which is typical for the French.

You can correct deficiencies in pronouncing the letter P by doing some exercises. It’s better to perform them while sitting and keeping your back straight. In this case, the child must see himself in the mirror.

This way he can see how well he completes the task.

• Sail . The child needs to open his mouth wide and lift the tip of his tongue behind his upper teeth. Bend the lower part of the tongue forward slightly and press the edges upward against the molars. You need to repeat this 3 times in a row for 10 seconds.
• horse . You need to press your tongue tightly against the roof of your mouth and then quickly release it. This will produce a sound reminiscent of the clopping of hooves. Repeat the task at least 10-15 times.
• Turkey . Draw an angry turkey with the baby. The child should throw the tongue out of the mouth, pushing it between the teeth. In this case, you need to pronounce sounds similar to “bl-bl”. The task is performed at a slow pace, gradually speeding it up.
• Let's bite our tongue . Stick the end of your tongue out and open your mouth in a smile. Then slowly bite your tongue with your teeth.
• Brushing our teeth . The baby needs to smile widely and move the tip of his tongue along the inner wall of the upper teeth, without moving the lower jaw.
• Who has it longer? Invite your baby to compare who has the longest tongue. Will he be able to reach his chin or the tip of his nose?
• Woodpecker . You need to open your mouth wide and tap your tongue hard on the inside of the gums near the upper teeth. At this time you need to say “d-d-d.”

To prevent your child from getting tired from numerous exercises, take breaks and invite him to roar like a lion. To consolidate the emerging successes, you can additionally learn tongue twisters and words that contain the letter R with your child.

Pronouncing the letters Z, S and C correctly

When a child does not pronounce the letter S, at the same time he cannot pronounce the other whistling letters and syllables - Z, Ts, Зь, Сь. The reason for this is an underdeveloped articulatory apparatus.

Special exercises will also help correct the situation.

1. Get the ball into the goal . The purpose of this task is to learn how to release a long, directed stream of air. Make gates on the table using blocks or other toys. Roll a loose cotton ball. The kid must, with his lips folded into a tube, blow on the ball and drive it into the gate. While performing the exercise, you should not puff out your cheeks, and the blown air should flow in one long stream, without interruption.
2. Song of the tongue . With your mouth slightly open, you need to place your tongue on your lower lip. Then you need to spank with your sponges - “five-five-five” (the tongue sings). The air comes out in a smooth stream without interruption. Then, opening your mouth wide, hold the soft tongue on your lower lip so that it does not curl up. It is necessary that the edges of the tongue touch the corners of the mouth.
3. Pancake . It is important to teach your baby to relax his tongue. To do this, he must smile and place the leading edge of his tongue on his lower lip. The smile should not be tense, and the tongue should only hang slightly from the lip.
4. Brushing our teeth . The exercise is similar to the task for the letter P, only we will brush the lower teeth rather than the upper ones.

The letter Z is paired with the letter C, so its production is done in the same way as the sound C.

The sound T consists of two sounds - T and S, which quickly move from one to another. It is important to teach your baby to separate one sound from another. Ask your baby to say first the long sound “shhhhh”, and then the short “shhhh, tshh, tshh” sound. As a result, the baby will make the sound C.

What about K and G?

The sounds K, G and X belong to the back of the tongue, which implies a high rise of the tongue when pronouncing them. When a child does not pronounce these letters, most often his tongue is simply lazy (with the exception of congenital pathologies that only doctors can correct). To make your tongue work, you need to do exercises.

Slide downhill . Place a cotton ball on your baby's palm. The baby should open his mouth slightly, hold the root of his tongue in a raised position, and lower the tip of it. Then you need to quickly exhale so as to blow the cotton wool from your palm. The sound will be K.

spoon . Ask your baby to say “ta-ta-ta” slowly. Take a teaspoon and gently move your tongue away by pressing on the front of the back of it. Instead of “ta”, the baby will first get “cha”, and then “kya”. Continuing to press on the tongue, catch the moment when the baby produces a clean “ka”. He needs to remember what position his tongue was in at that moment. Don't worry if it doesn't work out right away.

Regardless of the exercises you do with your child to pronounce which letter, after class, repeat with him as many words, rhymes or songs with this letter as possible.

Hissing sounds (Sh, Zh, Shch, Ch) are not always possible even for a six-year-old child. Instead of the word “bump” you can hear “detective”, “fifka”, “tytka”, “hykhka”. These are different options for incorrectly pronouncing the sound Ш.

In order to correctly pronounce the sound Ш, the tongue must take a certain position in the oral cavity. It is certainly wide, the front edge of the tongue is raised up and forms a gap with the hard palate near the upper front incisors, the lateral edges of the tongue are pressed tightly against the upper molars. It is important that the tongue is absolutely symmetrical, otherwise you may end up with a lateral pronunciation of sibilants.

The sounds of speech are acquired by the child in a certain sequence. Moreover, the first sounds the child begins to pronounce are not those sounds that he hears more often, but those that are easier for him to pronounce. Lifting the tip of the tongue upward becomes possible for a child at the age of about three years. Therefore, hissing sounds appear in speech at 3-4 years.

Before trying to teach your child to hiss on your own, we recommend undergoing a speech therapy examination by a specialist. Perhaps a shortened hyoid frenulum does not allow the tongue to rise up. Tongue muscle tone may cause lateral pronunciation. Only a specialist can cope with such features of the articulation organs.

If your baby's articulation organs are in order, we offer you the following action plan. The sequence of work is strictly defined. There is no need to rush to move from one point to the next.

1. Articulation gymnastics. (see Appendix 1)

First of all, it is necessary to prepare the organs of articulation for correct pronunciation. A specially selected complex of articulation gymnastics will help you with this. While performing articulation exercises, the baby must learn to make his tongue wide, lift it up, blow air in the middle of the tongue, while keeping his lips extended. All exercises should be performed freely, in a playful, fun and interesting way. Children learn only by imitation. Therefore, before you start exercising, learn all the necessary exercises yourself in front of the mirror. Exercises are learned gradually, adding new ones. Articulatory gymnastics should be performed daily, using any routine moments (washing, brushing teeth, getting dressed, walking, playing). It is important to achieve clear and correct execution. A small child switches quite quickly from one type of activity to another, so it is better to do 2-3 exercises, but more often during the day. The main thing is to maintain interest and not overtire the baby. Gymnastics can be performed to music, or accompanied by poetic texts. Once the exercises are completed with ease, you can proceed to the second step.

2. Invoking the sound Sh.

We draw your attention to maintaining the “secret” of sound. Don't say what sound you are going to make. We will not learn to say the sound Ш, we will learn to hiss like a snake.

We offer you several ways to evoke the sound Sh.
1. Hissing is the privilege of a snake. Therefore, it is worth depicting it using a hand. She will be a snake: the hand is the head, everything else is a flexible body. Here is a “snake” crawling across the table. Then he raises his head, makes a stand (resting on his elbow), stretches his head forward, and, opening his mouth, hisses: “Sh-sh-sh-…. In this case, it is worth drawing the child’s attention to the fact that the tongue – the “cup” – is raised up, and the lips are pulled forward in a tube. If the baby finds it difficult to stretch out his lips, help him - press your thumb and middle finger on his cheeks in the area of ​​​​the molars, the tongue from the inside will press more tightly against the molars, and the lips will protrude forward as a “mouthpiece”. We teach the snake to talk - we use cards with symbols or letters of vowel sounds (SHSHSH - SHA, SHSHSH - SHE, SHSHSH - SHO, SHSHSH -SHU).
2. We ask the child to make a “cup” out of his tongue. We lean the “edge of the cup” - the wide tip of the tongue - against the points of the upper teeth. There is very hot tea in the cup; you need to blow on the edge of the cup to cool the tea. The exhalation should be felt on the palm of your hand placed to your mouth. A vague whistling sound will be heard. Now you need to carefully put the cup into your mouth so as not to spill the tea. The “edge of the cup” slides from the tips of the upper teeth along the inside of the incisors, then along the palate to the alveoli. All this time we do not stop blowing “on the edge of the cup.” The whistling sound will turn into a hissing sound. When you hear the sound Ш, tell your child that this is the sound of a snake hissing. In the future, let the child immediately put the “edge of the cup” to the alveoli and “hiss.” “The hissing falls” on the palm, it is “hot.” We round and stretch out the lips - a full-fledged Sh will come out. We teach the snake to speak in syllables.
3. If the child has the correct sound C, ask him to “whistle like a mosquito.” The lips are in a smile, the upper and lower incisors are visible. Without interrupting the whistle, the child's tongue moves from the inner surface of the lower incisors to the inner surface of the upper incisors, and further to the alveoli. The mosquito must crawl, constantly feeling the way with its proboscis, so as not to lose its way, because it is dark in the mouth. The mosquito must turn into another creature, we suggest working together to find out who it will turn into. At first you will hear a fuzzy hissing sound. When the tongue reaches the alveoli, an almost full-fledged sound will be produced. The mosquito has turned into a snake and hisses. All that remains is to round and stretch your lips forward (either on your own or with the help of your fingers). We teach the snake to talk.
4. The child places the wide tip of the tongue on the outer surface of the alveoli and pulls out the sound T for a long time. It is followed by a hissing sound. Let the child aim this sound at his palm. While the child draws out the T sound and the hissing sound that follows, I keep my mouth slightly open. Please place the upper incisors on the lower ones. An almost full-fledged Sh will appear. The hissing should fall on the palm of your hand as a wide hot stream. Then you need to immediately hiss like a snake without the reference sound T. The lips are in a wide smile, opening the upper and lower incisors. While the baby is “hissing,” press your thumb and middle finger on his cheeks, thereby pushing his lips forward like a “mouthpiece.” The sound Ш will become completely accurate. In the future, the child will learn to pronounce the sound himself without aids. We teach the “snake” to talk.
5. If your child pronounces the sound R correctly, i.e., the wide tongue is behind the upper teeth and only the tip of the tongue vibrates, you can use R to produce the sound Sh. The lips are in a wide smile, the upper and lower incisors are visible, the child draws the sound R. We ask you to pronounce the same sound, but in a whisper, so that the tongue stops vibrating. The sound Sh will be heard. We tell the child that this is how a snake “hisses”. Round your lips. We fix the sound in syllables.
Having learned to pronounce the isolated sound Ш, we remember and look for what and who else can hiss. A punctured tire hisses, an angry cat and a goose, tree leaves rustle in the wind, fallen autumn leaves underfoot, a mouse scratches under the floor.

3. Automation of sound in syllables and words.

When automating sounds in words, you should exclude those words that contain sounds that your baby cannot pronounce. Those. If a child does not say the sound R, we do not offer him the word BALL.

Straight syllables (SHA, SHO, SHU, SHE, SHI, SHU)
= in intervocalic position (ASHA, OSHO, USHU, ESHE, ISHI, USHU)
= reverse syllables (АШ, ОШ, УШ, ЭШ, ИШ, УШ)

4. Automation of sound in sentences, poetry and coherent speech.

This work is carried out gradually, according to the principle: from simple to complex.

5. Differentiation of sounds.

This stage of work is necessary if your baby initially replaced the sound Ш with some other one (usually the sound S - “sapka”, “masina”).

Speech therapy notebooks will help you automate and differentiate sounds (see Appendix)
Annex 1.

Complex of articulatory gymnastics for hissing sounds

1. Window.

Open your mouth wide, the tongue lies freely in the mouth, the tip is located at the lower teeth. Hold your mouth in this position for a count of 1 to 5. Close your mouth, hold it closed for a count of 1 to 5. Repeat 3-5 times.

6. Let's punish the naughty tongue + pancake.

Smile. Open your mouth slightly. Calmly place your tongue on your lower lip and, smacking it with your lips, make the sounds of five-five-five. Keep the relaxed tongue in a calm position while counting from 1 to 10. The mouth is slightly open. The lips are not tense, they do not stretch into a wide smile. The lower lip does not stretch over the lower teeth. The tongue does not stick out far, it only covers the lower lip. Repeat 3-5 times.

The mouth is open. Lips in a smile. Press the wide tongue with its entire plane to the palate (the tongue is suctioned) and hold it in this position for a count of 1 to 10. The hyoid frenulum of the tongue is the “leg” of the mushroom, the tongue is its “cap”. The lateral edges of the tongue are pressed tightly to the palate, the lips do not stretch over the teeth. Repeat 3-5 times.

The mouth is open. Lips in a smile. The wide tongue is pressed to the palate (the tongue is sucked) and, without lowering the tongue, open and close the mouth. When you open your mouth, your lips smile and remain motionless, your tongue does not sag. 5-10 repetitions.
