Introduction to phonemic chart

How the chart relates to where and how you make the sounds

For more detailed notes go to http://seansenglishclassroom.pbworks.com/w/page/11442648/Pronunciation

For vowels ask 3 questions:

1. Is it long or short?
2. Is the tongue at the top, in the middle or at the bottom of the mouth?
3. Do you make the sound at the front, middle or back of the mouth?

For consonants think about:

1. How do you make the sound?
2. Where do you make the sound?
3. Is the sound made by vibrating the vocal chords or not ( is it voiced or unvoiced)?

Treat the chart like a map and it will help you find where to make the sound.

Homework
