Homophones are words that are pronounced the  same way, they just have different spellings  

and different meanings. Our words today are  tide which is the rise and fall of the sea  

or a brand name of laundry detergent  and tied attached bonded or fastened.

Three little sounds today. Let's start with  that t. Touch the tip of the tongue to the  

spot where your teeth meet the skin on  the roof of your mouth. Air puffs out.

Then we're going to move to that long i  sound. To do this open your mouth wide.  

Your tongue is going to move to low. The tip of  the tongue will be low in the front of the mouth.  

Back of the tongue will be pulled way high  up. Then you're going to close your mouth.  

I. As you close your mouth to a smile, your  tongue will end high and flat in your mouth.

Then touch the tip of the tongue to the back  of those top front teeth again for that d.  

D. Air puffs out. Your voice box  is on and moving for that d sound.

Let's put it all together: t-i-d 

t-i-d t-i-d 

tied tide tied tide tied tide

And now for a sentence:

The captain tied empty Tide bottles  to the boat to protect the ship  

from the dock during the rising tide.

Give it a try people are going  to notice the difference.
