Here's a breakdown of the phonemes present in a popular tongue twister. I am not a linguist, speech language pathologist, or anything else with an 'ist' on the end, so this should be considered a rather crude analysis. Still, I thought it might help me be more intentional about what sounds I'm strengthening in my classroom.
I am still learning about the phonetic alphabet. For this post, I am using this English phoneme chart. I am open to information and advice about how I might refine my knowledge. In this post, I will use my best approximation of the symbol on the chart and also provide a word that exemplifies the sound I'm referring to. /e/ means 'e as in pet', for example. The number behind the phoneme show us how many times it appeared in the passage.
OK, we'll start with a classic:
Breakdown
/h/ 'hat': 1
/au/ 'cow': 1
/m/ 'man': 1
/^/ 'luck' : 5
/tf/ 'chop': 5
/w/ 'wet': 4
/u/ 'good': 6
/d/ 'door': 6
/k/ 'cat': 6
/ago/ 'ago': 2
/I/ 'pit': 1
/f/ 'fan': 1
So there you have it! I don't expect this be a revelation to you, but I think that if we had many rhymes and tongue twisters broken down in this way, we would know where to turn when we encounter students struggling with certain sounds.

I ԁo not know if it's just me or if perhaps everyone else experiencing problems with your blog. It seems like some of the written text on your content are running off the screen. Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them too? This may be a problem with my browser because I've had this happen before.

Lots of people in todays way of living would like to learn
ReplyDeletehow to make money online and for a lot
of people this is becoming a lot more of a reality as the
internet grows day by day. While you can do
these things with chat rooms, forums allow you to converse with
more people, because you do not all have to be online at the same time.
As for the rates, this would vary depending on the client that
you're working with and the kind of job they need you to do.

Because the Acne No More program is not a quick fix fairy tale cure but a complete
ReplyDeleteholistic solution aimed at eliminating the root
cause of acne and digestive disorders (regardless of their severity) and ensure your will permanently
be acne-free, it does take work and persistence to complete.
Most natural health experts say you should drink
two to three cups a day in order to get the maximum results.
It works on individual blemishes rather than on the entire face.
