  • Hello everyone it's Jennifer from  Tarle speech with your two for Tuesday  

  • homophone lesson. Homophones are words  that are pronounced exactly the same way  

  • but the words are spelled differently  and have different meanings.

  • Our words today are die to stop living 

  • and dye a substance used to  change the color of something

  • Here are the words. Two little sounds today. We  are going to start with that d sound. To do this,  

  • the tip of your tongue touches the back of  your top front teeth. To be really specific,  

  • the spot between your teeth and where  the skin on the top of your mouth begins.  

  • Air will puff out for this sound and your  voice box is vibrating on and moving.

  • Then we're going to end with the i. To  do this open your mouth really wide in an  

  • oval shape. When you have your mouth in that  open wide oval shape, tip of your tongue is down,  

  • back of your tongue is pulled really high  up, oh. Then you're going to move to the E.  

  • Move to the smiling lip position. When  you move to that smiling lip position,  

  • your tongue will end high and flat in  your mouth. So let's look at that again

  • i i i and

  • Let's put that all together  die die die die die die.

  • And now for a sentence:

  • Don't swallow the dye it is  poisonous and you could die.

  • Give it a try I know people are  going to notice the difference.  

  • If you found this helpful we love it when you  give us a like and share us with your friends.
