MESSAGE TO ALL ENGLISH TEACHERS!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

      

  The basics of teaching pronunciation is fairly easy. All you need is

  a large list of words, phrases, or sentences that contain specific

  target sounds and have the students complete various exercises or

  drills that focus on producing or listening for that sound. EASY!

 

        Of course the problem is FINDING that long list word words, phrases, and

        sentences.

 

                    Sure, .... you could spent hours and hours on the Internet going from

                    one site to another looking for  words and phrases that contain the

                    target sound. (Good luck with that)

 

                    Sure, ....  you could spend days and days flipping through a dictionary

                    looking for words that have the specific target sounds you need.

 

                    Sure, ... you could wrack your brain trying to think of a list of words

                    that contain the target sound and then spend even more time double

                    checking in a dictionary to make sure that the sound you think is in

                    the word is actually there.

 

But why would you do that if you don't have to?

 

        A Guide To Teaching English Pronunciation gives you

        every thing you need to easily and systematically add the

        teaching of pronunciation to you list of teaching skills.

 

 

 

The book contains exercises and drills for:

for all vowel sounds

for all consonant sounds
for linking of sounds
for ending sounds
for contractions
for rhythm
for syllables
for intonation
for reductions
for consonant clusters
for sound changes

 

But what kind of exercises and drills you ask?

         There are several kinds of exercises in the book. Each exercise has

         between 20 to 25 items containing two or three words in a group. The

         words in the group may or may not contain the target sound. The teacher

         reads the words to the students and they must decide (by marking on an

         answer sheet): 

 

 

Which of three words does not contain the target sound

Which syllable in the word the target sound is in for

individual words

If two words are the same or different

Which target sound an individual word contains

(for example b or p)

Fill in the blanks on an answer sheet from a sentences read by the teacher

Speaking practice exercises in which students make their own sentences using example phrases that contain the target sounds  

 

                  

                The drills consist of short sentences and phrases that the teacher

                reads and the students repeat to practice producing and listening

                for the target sounds. There are drills for:

 

 

individual vowels and consonants

flaps

glottal stops

contractions

reductions

ending sounds

ellipsis

syllable stress

linking of sounds

intonation patterns

 

 

                  «« In addition to the drills and exercises there are also answer

                          sheets that can be copied and handed out to students for

                          each exercise  ««
