  • Hello it's Jennifer from Tarle speech with  your two for Tuesday homophone lesson!

  • Homophones are words that are spelled  differently but they have the same  

  • pronunciation. So our words today are sole which  is the bottom of the foot or shoe, only one,  

  • or a type of fish, and soul a spiritual part  of a being or something that arouses emotion.

  • Here are the words. So to say  these words correctly three  

  • little sounds. We're going to start with that s.  

  • To say this, the tip of the tongue is pointed  down, or is just behind the top front teeth. Air  

  • is going to move out of your mouth continuouslyNext we're going to move to that long o. And to  

  • do that, you're going to open your mouth in  a wide oval, while the tip of your tongue is  

  • super low in your mouth, the back of the tongue is  pulled way high up. Then you're going to move to a  

  • pucker. As you move to that pucker your tongue  just flattens out in the middle of your mouth.

  • Last end by touching the tip of your tongue  to that spot where your teeth meet the roof  

  • of your mouth, where they meet that skin  part. And then you're going to hold it  

  • there for that sound. Hold it there an extra  second. Don't let go, and make sure that your  

  • lips are pulled back into a kind of a smile  shape, you don't want to have them rounded.

  • Let's put it all together

  • s-o-l s-o-l 

  • s-o-l soul sole soul

  • And now for a sentence:  

  • She bared her soul and admitted she  doesn't like the red sole on the shoe.

  • Give it a try people are going to notice  the difference! If you found this helpful,
