Laura

Monday´s class

Hello everybody,

Peter will be back this coming Monday. He asked me to tell you that you have to read Jenkins chapter and answer the questions I have just left in Carpe Diem. Those of you that came to the tutorial class already have the questions, so you don't need to photocopy them.

See you on Monday.

Fernanda

Friday's class

Hi!!!!

You won't have regular classes on Friday with Peter since he is going to be absent. BUT those of you who have to sit for the make up exam can attend a class I'm going to teach from 9 to 11.30. I have chosen that timetable since I know some of you have classes from 8 to 10 or from 10 to 12. Therefore, all of you will be able to attend to AT LEAST one hour of the class. I will ONLY teach the class if at least SIX of you sign in to attend it. You will be able to register until Thursday 14.00 hs. To do so, I have left a list on the board, but you can also register here.

REMEMBER! I have made a cd with all the diction material of the subject. You can either give me a cd to record it OR buy it in architecture (I will leave the cd there tomorrow).

See you around.

Fernanda

Best, Laura

See u soon, Laura

ASSIGNMENTS FOR NEXT WEEK

Hello ppl!!

You are expected to complete assignments 3 and 4 for next week
Also re-read Chela de Rodriguez and carry out corrections on transcriptions. You can find some clues for reading Chela de Rodriguez below.

1) What is the aim of this paper?
2) Why is English rhythm more difficult to teach than other aspects of phonology?
3) Explain the 5 types of exercises Chela de Rodriguez uses in order to teach ER.
4) What assumptions about the teaching of ER do the results of her research suggest?

Best, Laura

ASSIGNMENTS FOR APRIL 12 WEEK

Hello!
You should complete Assignments on Stress 1 & 2 (the notes you should read are at the beginning of the "Stress" section) (this message is for students attending the Thursday group)
Also do the "Spanish and English Rhythm" assignment (that´s assignment number 8 and you should read the chapter taken from Finch & Ortiz Lira´s book on contrastive phonology)
Take care!
Laura

HOME ASSIGNMENTS: THURSDAY GROUP

Hello ppl!

These are the assignments for the students from the Thursday group who missed this week´s lesson because of the Easter holiday:

1) "Online Intonation" exercises 1+2 (google "Online Intonation")
2) Complete assignments on stress 1 and 2. You should read the first four pages featuring theory on English stress.
3) Read the first section of "Frank´s first football match" (Say with Rhythm II) and try to reproduce the intonation patterns. We shall record that lesson next week.
4) Transcribe the second dialogue taken from The listening file. Please use phonetic script and mark sentence stress (do NOT mark intonation, i.e. you souldn´t mark kinetic stresses)

Best!
Happy Easter!!
Laura

SECOND WEEK TASKS

Best,
Laura
