“Tongue twisters” are pronunciation games. Many languages have them. This week, you will practice some English tongue twisters.

Go to http://www.esl4kids.net/tongue.html or http://www.uebersetzung.at/twister/en.htm .

  1. Read the tongue twisters there and choose your 3 favorite.  Do not choose ones we have talked about in class.  Write them below.
  2. Talk to three people and ask them to say the tongue twisters you chose.
  3. Ask each person which tongue twister they think is the hardest.
  4. Write your results here.
