ologues and dialogues the students must know which words are to have the
logical stress and that the word with the logical stress is having the main semantic
meaning. It is very important for getting the right understanding of the content by
the students. The stress in compound words is always a heavy load. The students
may be given a task to differentiate the stress in a compound word and two words,
which do not make a compound.
E.g. 1) `Why did the `bus `stop at the `bus stop?
The first bus and stop are a noun and a verb, and both of them have the
primary stress. The second bus stop is a compound word and the primary stress is
only on “bus”.
2) `Is a `blackbird a `black `bird?
The first “blackbird” is a compound noun and the primary stress is on the
first syllable. The second “black” and “bird” are separate individual words, both
of which get the primary stress.
You may play games for ear training, like having the students sitting with
their back to you, you pronounce two words with contradicting sounds, e.g. cat –
cut, had – hat, etc. To give some variety you may change the sounds: vowels –
short or long; monophthongs and diphthongs; consonants – voiced and voiceless.
Those students, who imitate correctly, may turn their face to you.
The students may write dictations to practice sounds. They listen to a text
and write only the words with a certain sound. Alternatively, they write what they
hear and hand in their writing for the teacher to check it.
The students often come after school education having no idea about
sentence stress, speech melody, tempo and rhythm.
A sentence may be a single intonation unit or have two and more intonation
groups. We should teach them to divide a sentence into sense groups, what
intonation patterns are used in all communicative types. You should focus on
learning the intonation patterns of all types of communication. The students must
know that there is a subject phrase, a sense group of adverbial modifiers, participial
and gerundial phrases which are separated by a special pause and intonation.
Training intonation patterns goes hand-in-hand with the vocabulary and
grammar exercises. The use of correct stress and intonation brings to correct
speaking a foreign language and easy understanding. Fluent reading and speaking
are only possible when you are sure that you have obtained a good pronunciation.
