04-THEME+2-+PHONETICS


 * THEME 2- THE WAY LANGUAGE SOUNDS. MAIN PHONIC FEATURES **

We already know the importance of **interaction** when trying to develop children in linguistic and communication competence, but are we aware of the essential role of a good pronunciation when providing an attractive Public Speech?

A teacher is always a reference, as we provide Public Speech ( Vygotsky) which should include all the features of meaningful, contextualized and full of paralinguistic features children expect.

Therefore, our first focus will be : Supra-segmental phonemes ( Pitch, Intonation and Stress pattern) later we will improve our pronunciation practicing individual phonemes. We will use many different techniques, one of the most outstanding Silent Way comparative phonetics using handmade "Fidels".
