A series of picture matching and conversation practice worksheets to improve students' pronunciation of word-final consonant clusters -ft / -st. These are quite tricky for the Thai-speaking students I teach!



Each consonant cluster has two sheets to clarify the pronunciation and meaning of the words. Firstly, students match the words to the pictures - there are 5 words with the single consonant on the left, and 5 with the consonant + t on the right, to make it easier to compare the sounds side by side.



After that, there are 'find someone who' -style conversation questions using the words from the picture sheet with the key sounds highlighted, in order to remind students to pay special attention to these sounds while speaking. They are all yes/no questions, with additional space for asking follow-up questions for extra information.



It generated some good conversation today - hope you find it useful too!
