P-Sound Articulation Guide

In this section, we will focus on the /p/ sound, guiding you through a step-by-step process to correct any articulation difficulties. You will learn how to recognize, produce, and practice the /p/ sound accurately. This section will cover essential techniques for sound awareness, sound production, and building fluency, ensuring that the /p/ sound is correctly articulated in words, phrases, and sentences. To make the most of this process, please follow the menus provided throughout the section, as they will lead you through each therapeutic step in a structured and progressive manner, helping you achieve clear and confident speech.

B-Sound Bombardment

• Sound Bombardment is primarily focused on auditory training rather than articulation. The goal is to help the child hear and recognize the /b/ sound across a variety of words, so they become more familiar with it before focusing on producing the sound accurately. This auditory training lays the groundwork for later stages where the child will start producing the sound correctly.
• Sound bombardment (auditory bombardment) involves listening to a large number of words with the target sound. This helps reinforce the sound’s presence and importance in language. The repetition also helps build familiarity and makes the sound stand out.

Goal:
To help the child develop awareness of the /b/ sound through listening before practicing its correct production in words.

1. Auditory Bombardment (Sound Awareness):

• Start by introducing words that begin with the /b/ sound, such as 'bee,' 'bed,' and 'bus.'
• Once the child is familiar with the /b/ sound in the initial position, gradually introduce words with the /b/ sound in the middle and at the end.
• Say each word aloud clearly, allowing the child to listen to the /b/ sound in different words.
• The child’s focus is on hearing and becoming familiar with the /b/ sound in various words.

Why This Is Important:
Auditory bombardment helps the child hear the target sound repeatedly, strengthening their ability to recognize it when they encounter it in speech. This helps build awareness and prepares them for future articulation practice.

Instructions for the Auditory Discrimination Sorting Activity

Objective:

The goal is to help the child practice identifying the /b/ sound in any position of a word (beginning, middle, or end) and sort words into two categories:

1. Words that contain the /b/ sound
2. Words that do not contain the /b/ sound

How to Play:

• Start the Activity:The child will see a set of buttons with sound symbols. Each button corresponds to a word.
• Click a Button to Hear the Word: When the child clicks a button, the corresponding word will be pronounced and the related image will appear on the screen, so encourage the child to listen carefully for the /b/ sound, whether it is at the beginning, middle, or end of the word, and remind them that they can click the sound button multiple times until they are ready to drag and drop the image into the correct section.
• Identify the Presence of the /b/ Sound: After deciding whether the word contains the /b/ sound or not, the child can drag the image into the correct section.
  • For example:"baby" has the /b/ sound or "cap" does not have the /b/ sound anywhere.
  • Optional: You can prompt the child by asking, 'Can you hear the 'buh' sound in the word?' and 'Is the 'buh' sound at the beginning, middle, or end of the word?
• Drag the Image to the Correct Basket:
  • Basket 1: /b/ Sounds – For words that contain the /b/ sound anywhere in the word (e.g., "baby," "cabbage,...).
  • Basket 2: No /b/ Sounds – For words that do not contain the /b/ sound at all (e.g., "cap," "shoelace," "park"...).
• Completion:Continue the activity by having the child click the buttons, listen to each word, and drag the images to the correct baskets based on whether the word contains the /b/ sound. Once all images are sorted (4 in each basket), a success message will appear.

I. Introduction: Understanding the /b/ Sound

Overview of the Approach:
In this session, we will focus on the /b/ sound, one of the first sounds commonly targeted in speech therapy. Before practicing the /b/ sound in words, it’s important to ensure the child understands how to physically produce the sound. This first step will help the child understand the key articulators involved—the lips and vocal cords—and how they work together to create the /b/ sound.

Goal:
To ensure the child understands how to physically make the /b/ sound before moving on to word-level practice. This step lays the foundation for accurate sound production.

Instructions:

1. Explain the Articulatory Process:
   • "The /b/ sound is a voiced bilabial stop. This means we make the sound by bringing our lips together. This blocks the airflow for a moment, creating pressure behind the lips. When we release the lips, the air comes out, producing the /b/ sound. The vocal cords also vibrate, making the sound voiced."
2. Use Animated GIFs for Visual Support:
   • "Let’s watch these animated GIFs to see what happens when we make the /b/ sound. You’ll see the lips coming together to trap the air, and then the lips open to release the sound. As the air is released, you should feel a slight vibration in your throat."
3. Key Points to Emphasize:
   • "First, close your lips tightly."
   • "Then, build up air pressure behind your lips."
   • "Finally, when you open your lips, the air is released quickly, making the sound ‘buh.’ You should feel a buzz in your throat because the sound is voiced."

Why This Is Important:
Understanding how the /b/ sound is physically produced helps the child connect their mouth movements to the correct sound. This foundational knowledge is essential for accurately producing the sound later, especially when practicing it in words.

Evidence-Based Support:

• Motor Planning: Research shows that understanding the physical process of sound production helps with motor planning. The child learns to connect their brain and muscles to execute the correct movements for sound production. By focusing on the lips, air pressure, and vocal cords, the child can develop the motor skills needed for accurate /b/ sound articulation.
• Repetition and Practice: Consistent exposure to the physical steps of producing the sound through visual and verbal cues strengthens the motor pathways needed for accurate production. This leads to more efficientand effective articulation practice in the future.

II. Articulation Practice (Sound Production)

After the child has been exposed to the /b/ sound through auditory bombardment and understands how the key articulators (the lips and vocal cords) work together to produce the sound, they can move on to practicing articulation.

P-Sound Bombardment

• Sound Bombardment is primarily focused on auditory training rather than articulation. The goal is to help the child hear and recognize the /p/ sound across a variety of words, so they become more familiar with it before focusing on producing the sound accurately. This auditory training lays the groundwork for later stages where the child will start producing the sound correctly.
• Sound bombardment (auditory bombardment) involves listening srv to a large number of words with the target sound. This helps reinforce the sound’s presence and importance in language. The repetition also helps build familiarity and makes the sound stand out.

Goal:

To help the child develop awareness of the /p/ sound through listening before practicing its correct production in words.

1. Auditory Bombardment (Sound Awareness):

• Start by introducing words that begin with the /p/ sound, such as 'pig,' 'pen,' and 'pie.'
• Once the child is familiar with the /p/ sound in the initial position, gradually introduce words with the /p/ sound in the middle (e.g., 'apple,' 'puppy') and at the end (e.g., 'cup,' 'soap').
• Say each word aloud clearly, allowing the child to listen to the /p/ sound in different words.
• The child’s focus is on hearing and becoming familiar with the /p/ sound in various words.

Why This Is Important:

Auditory bombardment helps the child hear the target sound repeatedly, strengthening their ability to recognize it when they encounter it in speech. This helps build awareness and prepares them for future articulation practice.

Instructions for the Auditory Discrimination Sorting Activity

Objective:

The goal is to help the child practice identifying the /p/ sound in any position of a word (beginning, middle, or end) and sort words into two categories:

• Words that contain the /p/ sound
• Words that do not contain the /p/ sound

How to Play:

1. Start the Activity: The child will see a set of buttons with sound symbols. Each button corresponds to a word.
2. Click a Button to Hear the Word: When the child clicks a button, the corresponding word will be pronounced, and the related image will appear on the screen. Encourage the child to listen carefully for the /p/ sound, whether it is at the beginning, middle, or end of the word. Remind them that they can click the sound button multiple times until they are ready to drag and drop the image into the correct section.
3. Identify the Presence of the /p/ Sound: After deciding whether the word contains the /p/ sound or not, the child can drag the image into the correct section.
   • For example: "pig" has the /p/ sound, but "cat" does not have the /p/ sound anywhere.
   • Optional: You can prompt the child by asking, "Can you hear the 'puh' sound in the word?" and "Is the 'puh' sound at the beginning, middle, or end of the word?"
4. Drag the Image to the Correct Basket:
   • Basket 1: /p/ Sounds – For words that contain the /p/ sound anywhere in the word (e.g., "pig," "apple," "cup").
   • Basket 2: No /p/ Sounds – For words that do not contain the /p/ sound at all (e.g., "cat," "shoelace," "bark").
5. Completion: Continue the activity by having the child click the buttons, listen to each word, and drag the images to the correct baskets based on whether the word contains the /p/ sound. Once all images are sorted (4 in each basket), a success message will appear.

The Speech Sound Word Bank

The Speech Sound Word Bank is a practical, time-saving resource for Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs), Communication Disorder Assistants (CDAs), and parents. It provides organized word lists for each English speech sound, clearly grouped by initial, medial, and final positions. These ready-to-use documents are designed to support therapy planning, articulation drills, home practice, and more—so you can focus on delivering effective sessions without the stress of searching for words.
Coming soon: Picture supports for each sound in all three positions, to make your sessions even more engaging and accessible for young learners.

Plosives (Stops)

Plosives (Stops) are speech sounds made by completely blocking the airflow in the mouth for a short time and then releasing it suddenly, creating a burst of sound. This happens when two speech organs, like the lips or tongue and the roof of the mouth, come together to stop the air. In English, common plosives include /p/, /b/, /t/, /d/, /k/, and /g/. Some are voiced (with vocal cord vibration, like /b/ and /d/) and some are voiceless (without vibration, like /p/ and /t/). Unlike nasal sounds such as /m/, where air flows through the nose, plosives completely stop the airflow before releasing it.

• "G" /ɡ/ – Voiced Velar Plosive → Download /g/ Word List (PDF)

Fricatives

Fricatives are speech sounds produced by narrowing the space between two speech organs to create continuous airflow and friction. Unlike plosives, the air is not completely blocked, but squeezed through a tight space, which creates a hissing or buzzing sound. In English, fricatives include /f/, /v/, /s/, /z/, /ʃ/ (as in "shoe"), /ʒ/ (as in "measure"), /θ/ (as in "think"), and /ð/ (as in "this"). Some are voiced (like /v/ and /z/), and others are voiceless (like /f/ and /s/).

Affricates

Affricates are speech sounds that begin like plosives, with a complete blockage of airflow, but end like fricatives, with a gradual release that creates friction. This combination gives affricates a unique sound quality that blends stopping and squeezing air. In English, the two main affricates are /tʃ/ (as in "chop") and /dʒ/ (as in "jump"). /tʃ/ is voiceless, and /dʒ/ is voiced.

• "J" /dʒ/ – Voiced Post-Alveolar Affricate → Download /dʒ/ Word List (PDF)

Nasals

Nasals are sounds produced by completely blocking airflow in the mouth while allowing air to pass through the nose. The soft palate (velum) lowers to open the nasal passage, giving these sounds their characteristic resonance. In English, the nasal sounds are /m/, /n/, and /ŋ/ (as in "sing"). All nasal sounds in English are voiced, meaning the vocal cords vibrate during production.

• "Ng" /ŋ/ – Voiced Velar Nasal → Download /ŋ/ Word List (PDF)

Approximants

Approximants are speech sounds made by bringing two speech organs close together, but not close enough to create turbulent airflow or friction. They are smoother and more vowel-like than other consonants. English approximants include /w/, /j/ (as in "yes"), /l/, and /ɹ/ (as in "red"). These sounds are all voiced and are often used in speech to create smooth transitions between other sounds.

Speech Sound Word Bank Overview

The Speech Sound Word Bank is based on a custom-built database of around 8,000 unique English words, thoughtfully curated over several years to support a wide range of speech and language therapy needs.

This database was designed with versatility and practicality in mind. Each word was selected not just for its speech sound content (initial, medial, final positions), but also for its:

• Word shape (CV, CVC, CVCV, CCVC, etc.)
• Level of complexity – from simple early words for children to more complex vocabulary for older clients and adults
• Picturability – most words represent concrete, image-friendly concepts to support visual learning and AAC use

The result is a rich, flexible resource that can be used in:

• Articulation therapy
• Phonological therapy
• Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS)
• Aphasia therapy
• Language development and vocabulary building
• ...

Each downloadable word bank (e.g., D-Artic-Word-Bank.pdf, S-Initial-Words.pdf, NG-Artic-Word-Bank.pdf....) is organized by speech sound and sound position, helping SLPs, CDAs, educators, and parents save time during therapy planning and home practice.

In addition to organized word lists, each word bank also includes Standard English IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) transcriptions for every word. These phonetic transcriptions support accurate pronunciation and are especially helpful for non-native English speakers, ESL/EFL learners, and anyone studying English pronunciation. The IPA provides a consistent, visual guide to how each word is pronounced, regardless of spelling, making it a valuable tool for both therapy and language learning.

Note: Occasionally, you may see a word marked with an asterisk (*). This indicates that the word was not available in the pronunciation dictionary used for IPA transcription. These words were still included due to their therapeutic value, picturability, or relevance to specific speech sound targets.

A Personal Note:
English is my third language, and I’m not a native speaker. This project was built over many years through a lot of dedication, late nights, and hard work. While I’ve done my very best to ensure accuracy—especially in the IPA transcriptions and word selections—there may be occasional small errors.

I want to be transparent about that, but also assure you that every part of this word bank was created with great care, and it has been reviewed closely. It is a highly accurate and useful tool, even if it’s not 100% perfect. I hope it serves you and your clients, students, or children as well as it has served mine.
