TONGUE-TWISTERS




The English pronunciation can sometimes be a bit tricky, especially for the children due to the amount of sounds and phonemes that we found in English. So we have to work it enough, and what a better way to do it than having fun!
Tongue twisters are a fun and useful option. Depending on the age and level of the children we can complicate them or look for some easier. They also allows us to work other aspects as vocabulary.
Here are some tips for the teacher or the parents that want to use them, to make their learning more effective:
- Give your children the opportunity to imitate(you/recordings/songs/TV/internet).
- Reviewing the parts of the mouth can help your students clearly understand how to make appropriate English sounds.
- Practice the use of that sound or sound pattern (minimal pairs/tongue twisters).
Beside this publication we have some of the phonemes that we can work with them.
I publish under this post some of the tongue twisters that you can use and that we saw in the college class!





Let's pronounce great!
ENJOY LEARNING,
Laura.
