  • Hello amazing students!

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

  • Homophones are words that are spelled differently, have different meanings but are pronounced  exactly the same way.

  • So it's a bogo: buy one get one free!

  • Our words are: swayed which means to rock  

  • back and forth or to persuade and suede leather with a soft surface

  • To say these words correctly let's start  with that s sound. To do this tip of the  

  • tongue is either pointed down or it's behind  those top front teeth. It's not touching.  

  • Air continues out for that s sound. You can  see my lips are pulled back a little tiny bit  

  • then what I'm going to do is  move to a pucker for that w w.

  • Then I'm going to open for that long a  

  • and then move to a smile. When I open the  tip of my tongue is low back of my tongue  

  • is high up. As I move to the smile my tongue  is going to end high and flat in my mouth.

  • Then I'm going to touch the tip  of my tongue to the back of my  

  • top front teeth for that d - d and  pull it down while the air puffs out.

  • Let's put it all together suede

  • suede suede suede suede suede suede

  • And now for a sentence:

  • He could not be swayed to buy the suede jacket.

  • Give it a try people will notice the difference!
