- Practice saying the words ending with th on slide 9 out loud. Can you add any more examples? How many of these words are new to you? Look up the meanings of the ones you don’t know.
- Use the words on slide 9 to create new phrases with CV and CC connections, e.g., ‘smooth arm’ / ‘smooth skin’. Practice saying them out loud, moving forward th in CV connections and moving it forward then changing it to tt in CC connections. Put your phrases into whole sentences and say them out loud.
- Practice saying the words ending with tt on slide 10 out loud. Can you add any more examples to each group?
- Use the words on slide 10 to create new phrases with CV and CC connections, e.g., ‘depth of’ / ‘depth which’. Practice saying them out loud, moving forward tt in both CV connections and CC connections.
- Write sentences that contain at least two connections with th or tt moving forward, e.g., ‘Bob drew both pictures with an HB pencil.’ Practice saying them out loud.
- Practice saying the phrases on slide 11 out loud. Focus on the th sound in the CV connections and the very light tt sound in the CC connections. Record yourself saying them, then listen back, slow down the recording and listen to the sound connections. How did you do?
