2. I'd like to find some activities to help them become aware of this difficulty (eg, picking up stress on first syllable of most words)

2. Learning the different sounds specific to English through oral comprehension and repetition ]]> 2021-03-11 13:28:58 UTC https://padlet.com/whyshona/ncg52djaqt72/wish/1297859595 whyshona https://padlet.com/whyshona/ncg52djaqt72/wish/1297863711 1. listening to authentic English, spontaneous, fast speech - DIANA (exercises for listening to short segments many times in order to understand how speech changes when it is speeded up) TORTEL article too
2. Pronunciation: certain sounds not in FR - /h/ and "th" and /r/ - PERCEPTION, ARTICULATORY PHONETICS (where do your tongue, teeth and lips move to produce each sound)
3. Pronunciation of English words with French phonemes/intonation - nasalisation - interference/transfer, NOTICING how English is pronounced, INPUT - hearing the target words often enough
4. speaking fluently without notes - assign activities that require spontaneous, unprepared participation, grade on the basis of spontaneous speech. Doing an activity and then repeating it is a good way to build fluency (COGNITIVE LOAD - you can't speak quickly about something you're not sure of and have to pay attention to vocab and syntax)
