share us on:

In this lesson, students explore various sounds made by the letter “l” when combined with other letters, specifically focusing on the “lf,” “lk,” “lm,” “lp,” and “lt” sounds. They practice reading words that contain these sounds, while also learning about instances where the “l” is silent. The lesson encourages students to continue practicing to enhance their reading skills.
  1. What sound do we hear at the end of the words like “itself” and “yourself”?
  2. Can you think of a word that has a silent “l” in it?
  3. What are some words that end with the “lp” sound?

Let’s Learn Sounds Together!

Hey there! Are you ready to have some fun with letters and sounds? Let’s get started!

The “lf” Sound

The letter “l” makes the sound “l,” and the letter “f” makes the sound “f.” When we put them together at the end of a word, they make the sound “lf.” Let’s try reading some words with “lf” at the end:

  • itself
  • yourself
  • werewolf
  • engulf

Sometimes, the “l” is silent, which means we don’t say it out loud. Here are some words with a silent “l”:

  • calf
  • half

The “lk” Sound

Now, let’s learn about the “lk” sound! The letter “l” makes the sound “l,” and the letter “k” makes the sound “k.” Together, they make the sound “lk.” Try reading this word:

  • elk

Sometimes, the “l” is silent here too. Let’s read these words:

  • talk
  • chalk
  • walk
  • folk
  • yolk

The “lm” Sound

Next up is the “lm” sound! The letter “l” makes the sound “l,” and the letter “m” makes the sound “m.” Together, they make the sound “lm.” Let’s read these words:

  • realm
  • overwhelm

The “lp” Sound

Now, let’s explore the “lp” sound! The letter “l” makes the sound “l,” and the letter “p” makes the sound “p.” Together, they make the sound “lp.” Try reading these words:

  • gulp
  • pulp
  • kelp
  • scalp
  • help

The “lt” Sound

Finally, let’s learn the “lt” sound! The letter “l” makes the sound “l,” and the letter “t” makes the sound “t.” Together, they make the sound “lt.” Let’s read these words:

  • built
  • guilt
  • molt
  • vault

Great job learning all these sounds! Keep practicing, and you’ll become a reading superstar!

  1. Can you think of any other words that have the “lf,” “lk,” “lm,” “lp,” or “lt” sounds? Try saying them out loud and see if you can hear the sounds we learned about!
  2. Have you ever noticed any silent letters in words you read or hear? Why do you think some letters are silent?
  3. Can you make up a funny story using some of the words we learned today? Share your story with a friend or family member and see if they can hear the special sounds!
  1. Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your home or classroom! Look for objects or pictures that have the “lf,” “lk,” “lm,” “lp,” or “lt” sounds in their names. For example, you might find a “shelf” for the “lf” sound or “milk” for the “lk” sound. Draw a picture of each item you find and write its name next to it. Share your findings with a friend or family member!

  2. Sound Sorting Game: Create a set of cards with words that have the “lf,” “lk,” “lm,” “lp,” and “lt” sounds. Mix them up and sort them into groups based on their ending sounds. You can use words from the lesson or come up with new ones. Once sorted, practice saying each word out loud and listen for the sounds. Can you think of more words to add to each group?

  3. Story Time Challenge: Make up a short story using at least one word from each sound group (“lf,” “lk,” “lm,” “lp,” “lt”). Draw pictures to go along with your story. Share your story with the class or a family member. How many sound words did you use? Can you find more words to add to your story?

Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript, removing any unnecessary repetitions and maintaining clarity:
