teaching word study principles and strategies to their students every time. One experience I had in my first-grade practicum placement was when my mentor teacher was teaching a unit on consonant digraphs. She started off by introducing the sounds that went with some of the common consonant digraphs and explaining what a consonant digraph is. The students would do an activity called digraph clip cards which had a picture and then had three digraphs below it and the student had to clip the digraph…

Non-Pulmonic Consonants: Non-pulmonic consonants are consonants created without the guidance of air from the lungs. There are three types of non-pulmonic consonants: clicks, voiced implosives, and ejectives. Clicks are formed by placing two articulatory structures together and separating them rapidly. Voiced implosives are air that is inhaled to produce the desired sound. The air is used before it reaches the lungs. Ejectives are generated by upward movement of the closed glottis. Non-pulmonic…

Meanwhile, the bass performed by Terry Wilkins has a regular meter, but with a mixture of consonant and dissonant sounds. At the end of each phrase one brief dissonant chord acts as a separation between two phrases; ultimately providing a “brief pause to allow the singers or players a moment to breathe,” (KayKaufman 2006,…

Sounds are by their nature dynamic, changing over time in terms of level and spectral content. In general, consonants contribute primarily to speech intelligibility and vowels to that of the power of speech (Niemeyer, 1967).

different strategies that we learned about in Chapter 7 of our textbook this week. The first strategy that I would employ would be “Letter Actions a consonant based strategy” (Vacca, et al., 2015, p. 191,192). This strategy is great for those learning how to read, but having difficulty with the words. In this strategy the sounds of the consonants are associated with action words. For example, C could be used with words like cut or S could be used with words like sip. Additionally, this is a…

Pluralizations in mainstream English will not be produced the same in African American English because of voicing generalization. The clusters of the plural forms of words ending in “sk” for example would be reduced to only the consonant “s” (Green, 2002). The voicing generalization also causes differences when producing the voiced or voiceless “th” in African American English dialect. If “th” is at the beginning of a word many times it will be replaced with a “d” sound and in the…
