Hello, I'm John Russell today.
Let's continue our review of vowel sounds.
We will practice with the ER sound, which I talked about in previous videos.
Think of her as a very flexible vowel sound.
It is flexible in the sense that it can be spelled many different ways.
Part of the challenge of learning to read and speak English is knowing when to use the ER sound.
Ah, quick review The er vowel sound ca NBI spelled with the letters e R E a r I are oh, are Or you are notice that all of these spellings have one or two vowels before the letter R.
So let's practice.
I will say a sentence and you should listen for the er sound count.
How many times you hear it, then I will give you the answer.
What were the first few words that you learned in the sentence?
I said the er sound four times were first words learned.
Let's go to our second practice question.
I learned the verb e in all of its forms.
In the sentence.
You heard the earth sound two times learned verb.
Here's our third sentence.
I heard some new English words When I was at work, I said The other sound three times Heard words and work.
That's all for today.
Keep up the good work.
