Improve your Pronunciation

A few parents have asked me for ideas of how to improve your child’s pronunciation, so here goes:

1)      Copy! Copy any native speaker you meet, try and imitate what they sound like.

2)      Watch! Watch films and TV shows in their first language. If you find the English too difficult put the subtitles on (even better if you can put English subtitles on).

3)      Read! Reading out loud with a native speaker or someone with a good level of English will help you to improve.

4)      Record! Make a film or a tape of you speaking then play it back. Suddenly you will hear yourself as others hear you; you´ll be amazed at what you notice!

Remember: Pronunciation in English is not as important as, for example, pronunciation in French. English speakers are used to hearing different dialects and accents. The most important thing is being understood.

Make Your Own Computer Games

Our ICT lesson for this week was a bit different in that we decided to make our very own computer games. We unfortunately don´t have much time to do this kind of thing in school so if you want to have a go at home use this link and click on "DEMO".

Play some games from the Horrible Histories website. They cover most of the topics we have looked at this year and some we haven't.
