Session Seven - Consonants

Task 1: Work on a warm-up exercise by distributing the twenty four IPA consonant cards to participants. Cover the cards and randomly say the sounds of the IPA symbols. Participants will reveal their cards as the corresponding sounds are read-aloud. Those who can show the right card will win and can enter to the second round of the game. Shuffle the cards again and read-aloud the sounds faster this time. Participants who can show their cards correctly will win and enter the third round of the game. Reshuffle the cards again and say it faster than the second time. The game will stop if the facilitator considers participants have sufficient practice to expose to the sounds.


Task 2: Can you think of any words which contain the following consonant sounds? Write one for each symbol.


Task 3: Say and pronounce the words below, focusing on the pronunciation of the consonant sounds. Remember to focus in particular on the pronunciation of final consonant sounds.
