Help with "ed" pronunciation activity or exercise

Posted by quilter · September 20, 2006 · 1 replies

Hi everyone,

I have been asked to come up with an activity or exercise to help students overcome the problems faced with "ed" endings. ( t, Id, and d). I have been asked to put some focus on syllable count.

Can anyone help?

Peace,
M

Can I ask where you are teaching and what kinds of problems are the students having? actual pronounciation problems? or problems separating them on tests?

Also what age group are you working with?

My students generally accept that there are 3 pronounciations depending on the word ending and have no problem with the pronounciation part. However, I'm not sure they counld easily separate them on paper because I don't teach them to do so.
