It's Jennifer from Tarle speech with  your two for Tuesday homophone lesson.

We have two words today that  are spelled differently,  

they have different meanings, but they are  pronounced exactly the same way. We have:

stationary which is not moving or not changing and stationery which is writing paper

So to say these words correctly we are going  to look at four syllables in this word.

Let's start with syllable number one. fFor  syllable number one we are going to say  

stay and to do this start with that s.  The tip of your tongue is pointed down  

or it's just behind those top front teeth. Air  continues out. Then touch the teeth for that t.

And then we're going to move to the a by opening  the mouth wide and moving to a smile. As you move  

the lips, the tip of the tongue will move from  low in the mouth with the back pulled high up,  

to the tip of the tongue will be right behind the  top front teeth. It'll be high and flat. stay stay

Next we're going to move to shun.  And to do this round the lips  

shh. Air is going to move out of your mouth  for that sh sound. That's two letters with  

one sound. Do not touch the tongue  to your teeth for this sound.

Next relax the lip. tongues are just tongue.  Relax the lips, tongue is just relaxed in the  

middle of the mouth for that uh, and then  touch the tip of the tongue to the back of  

the top front teeth for that n sound. Air  will move out of your nose. shun stay shun

Next we're going to move to air and to  do this open wide. Tip of the tongue low,  

back of the tongue is pulled high up, move to  square tense lips. As you do this your tongue  

will move a little tiny bit as you close your  mouth. Again tip of the tongue is either down  

or flipped back, whichever is your preference,  

and then we're going to end with that  e by smiling - because we are finished.

Let's put it all together stay shun air e station airy 

stationary stationary stationary stationery stationery stationery

And now for a sentence:

It is easiest to write on the  stationery if the desk is stationary.

Give it a try I know people  will notice the difference!
