Speak Right Read Right - Kit 1

The class in these pictures have just finished Level 1 of Speak Right Read Right Kit 1. So today we tried something different. I asked them to put all five vowel wheels in front of them and listen very carefully to the sound I made. They then had to find the right wheel and turn it to find the right consoant to make the full sound. They had a little bit of trouble at first but got better and better the more we tried.

The students at first had trouble differentiating the short 'a' and the short 'e' sounds but after a few attempts got pretty good at it. And then we made a game of it, to see who could find the sound the fastest as shown in these pics below.
