today is about three words check which is to examine or verify

chick which is a young bird or slang for a young woman and

cheek the side of the face

So let's take a look at our words. Okay all of these words start and end with the same

sound so let's get that out of the way. For the ch sound start by touching the tip

of your tongue to the back of your top front teeth and then pull it back for that ch ch

ch ch ch ch Then for the k sound the tip of your tongue

is way low in your mouth the back of your tongue is pulled high up sometimes it even

touches the roof of your mouth and air is just going to puff out K K.

So again we have CH and K. Now for the vowels I put the words in this

order on purpose we are going to start with a relatively closed mouth for the e your tongue

is going to be nice and high and flat for that sound e e your lips are tense and smiling.

You are going to relax your lips slightly and your tongue is going to pop down just

behind the top front teeth. So we have eeeee ih

and then you're going to open your mouth slightly and then you're going to see the tip of your

tongue between your top and your bottom teeth eh

ee ih

eh ee

ih eh

And your tongue is going to remain relatively flat for all of these sounds but again the

difference here is super high for the e with the tense mouth

relax the mouth ih ih open the mouth slightly eh

Let's give those words a try cheek cheek cheek

chick chick chick check check check

cheek chick check cheek chick check

And let's try it the opposite way check chick cheek

check chick cheek One more time

cheek cheek cheek chick chick chick

check check check cheek chick check

And now for a sentence Wipe your cheek before you ask for the check.

You have some of the chocolate chick from dessert on your face.
