Tongue behind teeth (Alveolar): Produce the sounds in this column. Point out the position of the tongue behind the teeth. Note: Often students have difficulty hearing all of the sounds in words. This is due to the fact that some consonant sounds are produced in the same location. This is called coarticulation. Use the word ants to illustrate this. Ask students to say the word ants and tell how many sounds they hear. Often the answer will be two or three, because of coarticulation. Use tiles to illustrate that there are four sounds: / ă / / n / / t / / s /.

13 Listening for -ing in Rapid Connected Speech Refer to the Contrastive Analysis Charts for: Chinese, p. A28; Haitian Creole, p. A30; Hispanic American English; p. A48; Hmong, p. A32; Khmer, p. A33; Korean, p. A34; Pilipino, p. A36; Portuguese, p. A37; Russian, p. A39; Spanish, p. A41; and Vietnamese, p. A4 In rapid connected American English speech, speakers tend to reduce the final -ing in progressive forms of verbs to / әn /. English learners often have difficulty recognizing it when it is pronounced this way. English learners need explicit instruction in recognizing reduced / әn / for -ing in progressive forms of verbs. Why Do: Provides focused practice in listening for the reduced form of -ing in rapid connected speech.
