Frequently Asked Questions

Common S words: sun, snake, star, sandwich, school, smile, snow, sock, and soup. S is the most frequent first letter in English — the dictionary has more S-words than any other letter. It is also among the first consonants taught in most phonics programs because it appears at the beginning of so many words children encounter early in reading.

S makes two sounds: /s/ (as in sun, stop, sock) and /z/ (as in his, dogs, please — when S comes at the end of a word after a voiced consonant or vowel). In most beginning positions, S says /s/. The S = /z/ rule is introduced gradually as children progress in reading. S also forms the digraph SH (/ʃ/ as in ship, shoe) with H.
