The quickest way to hear all the sounds

Post by debbie »

This is very handy video footage of hearing all the sounds very quickly and watching mouth formation at the same time:

This video footage was made to support the 'Can Do Cubes' phonics resource that I designed some years ago along with Michael Hughes, director of Can Do Education Ltd. (This is a great manipulative resource by the way - as are the Grammar Cubes!)

Phonics International also provides video footage of me saying the sounds linked directly to the spelling alternatives of the 'simple code' (mainly one spelling for all the sounds) and then two further videos where I say the sounds linked directly to the full range of spelling alternatives as shown on my Alphabetic Code Charts:

Sometimes I'm asked where people can 'hear the sounds' but sometimes they also want a close-up of mouth formation (how embarrassing for me - see the link above).

I hope these are helpful videos especially for parents and for teachers who are teaching English as an additional or foreign language and maybe their mother tongue is not English.

Did you know that there are far more teachers teaching English as a foreign language than teaching English as the mother tongue!
