Description: Working with your students on their pronunciation of short vowel sounds? If your students mix up the short e and short u sounds, you'll love this deck because it zeroes in on this pronunciation difficulty. Help your students master these /ɛ/ vs. /ʌ/ sounds. It's easier to pronounce these sounds correctly if you can HEAR the difference. Your students will get lots of listening practice with this deck! This is what you've been looking for! Most ESL students struggle with pronunciation, whether they are reading a word or just talking. Help them master the sounds of /ɛ/ and /ʌ/ with this interactive resource! Each card has an /ɛ/ vs. /ʌ/ minimal pair represented by both photos and words. The audio from the gold icon will play automatically. Students can immediately drag and drop it in the box for the correct word/image or click the silver icon to listen to the other word before moving any icons. Students must place both the gold and the silver icons in the box for the matching word/image. Students can listen to the words as many times as they want by clicking on the icons. This deck was created with adult students in mind and will not appeal to young learners. This boom deck uses the same photos and minimal pairs as the digital presentation part of my Short e vs. Short u Pronunciation for Adult ESL resource in my TpT store.
