PAPER ON THE TEACHING OF ENGLISH RHYTHMICAL PATTERNS

Dear sts,



Pls read the paper on rhythm by Chela de Rodriguez (p 113) and find the following information



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. Practice the examples aloud in pairs if possible.

4) What assumptions about the teaching of ER do the results of her research suggest?


Best, Laura
