    Learner A: pencil

   Learner B: book

               Learner A: notebook  etc.

3) PROCEDURALIZING

Tongue twisters
Materials: board
Pronunciation focus: any sound
Activity Type: group work

Aim of the activity

All levels and ages enjoy tongue twisters. They work well as a warm up to get students speaking or as an activity to help students to practise pronouncing difficult sounds in English. It is the combination of sounds in the words and the repetition of the phrases that makes them difficult but fun.

Choose some English tongue twisters which are suitable for the level of the students. Write one on the board and check that the students know what the words mean. The teacher might need to draw a picture on the board to help them imagine the scene.
Step1: The teacher says the tongue twister at normal speed. Teach it to the students by letting them join in. Then get them to say it a little faster and to repeat it three times in a row.

For example:

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Answer:

(The answer to the riddle is) "A woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could if a woodchuck could chuck wood."
