Try Kids Academy with 3-day FREE TRIAL!​ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ This phonics lesson from Kids Academy will teach your child all about the letter F. The letter F and its sound makes up many fun words. Once students learn the letter F and its sound they can begin forming all types of words like FUN, FAN and FLIP. This video will cover both the capital and lowercase F’s as well as use F as an example in many words. F is the sixth letter in the english alphabet and the letter name is pronounced ef. The letter F sound can be made by raising the upper lip and gently touching the teeth to the lower lip, then blowing air through the teeth. The sound is made as the air passes between the lower lip and the teeth. The letter F is commonly followed by a vowel (A,E,I,O,U) when it starts a word. This leads to a rolling of the lower lip into the vowel sound. Try slowly practicing the words FUN, FAR or FAST with your student in a mirror. Watching their own mouth move will help students with pronunciation of this letter. The letter F starts many words like FLAG, FALL and FURRY, but it can also be found in many words as well. Words like IF, SHELF, and CAFE all have the letter F making its traditional sound. F is also what is known as a bonus letter. When the letter F ends a word following a vowel it is doubled to keep the /f/ sound. For example the word STUFF uses two F’s to keep the sound. The word OFF also uses two F’s. WIthout both F’s the word would be OF which changes the sound and the meaning completely. This is a more advanced part of the letter F and dropping the bonus letter is a common mistake for young writers. Another common pitfall for young writers is confusing the digraph PH with the letter F. Since they both make the same sound it can be difficult for students to decide when to use each. The word PHONE uses the PH letters to make the /f/ sound. However, the word FUN uses the letter F to make the very same sound. It is best to keep these lessons separated and try not to use any PH words until they have fully grasped the sound and letter formation of the letter F. This video will use the letter F to learn all about friends having fun together.
