In this lesson, students learn about the “lf” sound created by the combination of the letters “l” and “f” at the end of words, pronounced like “oof.” They explore various examples of words that contain this sound, practice reading them aloud, and discover that the “l” can sometimes be silent in certain words like “calf” and “half.” The lesson encourages continued practice to enhance reading skills.
  1. What sound do the letters “l” and “f” make when they are together at the end of a word?
  2. Can you think of a word that ends with the “lf” sound?
  3. What does it mean when we say the “l” is silent in some words like “calf”?

Let’s Learn About the “lf” Sound!

Hey there! Are you ready to learn something fun? Today, we’re going to talk about two letters: “l” and “f.” When we put them together at the end of a word, they make a special sound, kind of like “oof.” Let’s explore this together!

Words with the “lf” Sound

Here are some words that have the “lf” sound at the end:

  • Golf
  • Himself
  • Herself
  • Yourself

Can you say these words with me? Try to read them out loud!

More Words to Practice

Let’s look at some more words that end with “lf.” See if you can read them before I do!

  • South
  • Itself
  • Oneself
  • Werewolf
  • Engulf

Silent “l” in “lf”

Sometimes, when “l” and “f” are together, the “l” is silent. This means we don’t say the “l” sound. Here are some examples:

  • Calf
  • Half

Isn’t that interesting? Now you know that sometimes the “l” in “lf” is quiet!

Keep Practicing!

Great job learning about the “lf” sound! Keep practicing these words, and you’ll get even better at reading them. Thanks for learning with me today!

  • Can you think of any other words that have the “lf” sound at the end? Maybe you can find some in your favorite storybook or around your home!
  • Have you ever heard someone say a word with a silent “l”? How did it sound to you? Can you try saying “calf” and “half” out loud?
  • Why do you think some words have silent letters? Do you know any other words with silent letters? Let’s share and talk about them!
  1. Word Hunt: Go on a word hunt around your home or classroom. Look for objects or pictures that have names ending with the “lf” sound. For example, you might find a picture of a “golf” ball or a “calf” in a book. Make a list of all the words you find and share them with your friends or family.

  2. Sound Detective: Become a sound detective! Listen carefully to conversations or stories and try to catch words that end with the “lf” sound. Each time you hear one, raise your hand or make a note. At the end of the day, see how many words you were able to detect. Can you think of any new words that weren’t in the lesson?

  3. Create a Story: Use your imagination to create a short story using as many “lf” ending words as you can. You can write about a “werewolf” playing “golf” by “itself” or any other fun scenario you can think of. Draw pictures to go along with your story and share it with your classmates or family.

Here’s a sanitized version of the provided YouTube transcript:
