Pair up for pronunciation fun! This lively illustrated book provides practice with individual sounds, word stress, intonation, and sound-spelling relationships to teach students to recognize and produce the sounds of American English. It includes the most common problem areas, using minimal pairs, dialogs, games, and listening and speaking exercises. Each of the 46 units practices a different sound. Sections on spelling show how each sound is usually spelled in English. Clear, helpful illustrations make the practice even more interesting! The cassettes can be used in class or individually.
