are pronounced exactly the same way, they just  have different meanings and different spellings.

So our words today are pole and that is a rod  

or either end of locations like the north and  the south pole and then poll a record of a vote.

So to say these words correctly  we're going to start with that p  

sound - put your lips together and  let them open up, air puffs out.

Next we're going to move to that long o sound  - to do that your mouth is going to open  

in a wide oval shape, tip of your tongue  is low, back of the tongue is pulled up.  

o; and then we're going to move to a pucker. As  you pucker your tongue is going to move along as  

you close your mouth and it'll end in the middle  of your mouth. There it's not touching the teeth.

Then we're going to end with an l and to do this  you're going to touch the tip of your tongue  

to the back of your top front teeth.

poll poll poll

I am going to give you one little extra tip here  

some of my students really have trouble  with l at the end of the word, especially  

when an o sound is right before it, this  is oftentimes because the lips remained  

puckered - you do not want to have puckered  lips for that l sound it's oolll not it's llll

You can see my lips are pulled back  a bit so again to do that it'll be ol

poll poll poll

And now for a sentence: The neighborhood  poll asked everyone to vote on the color  

for the flagpoles.

Give it a try i know people are going to notice  the difference. If you found this helpful please  

share us with your friends and give us a  like thanks everyone have a great week!
