Be sure to point out that they may scan the QR code with their phone to see the video.  These print best if you change them to a PDF file, then print.

Ariana Grande Break Free Song

The Sound of Silence.  Cover by Disturbed.  This is a cover of the Simon and Garfunkel classic. Gritty and edgy, yet easy to follow.  There is a QR code link to the live Conan performance, however there is also a music video you may choose to use.

The Sound of Silence

This worksheet makes use of the Betty Botter Tongue Twister to help students with pronunciation. It includes a brief minimal pair practice in which students must match the words to their phonetic transcription. I have also included a brief list of definitions for a few words. Note: there are two transcriptions, one uses a tap for the double t spelling and the other uses a t for the double t spelling. In American English, we use the tap (it looks like an upside down r) in normal speech and the t in careful speech (usually when we are clarifying the word for someone). The QR codes are for youtube and soundcloud so that your students can reference a native speaker's pronunciation when you are not around to help them. :) This worksheet was creating using the images I created for my Tongue Twister Tuesdays:

 Feel free to use this as well. Have fun getting tongue tied! ;)
