To learn about the stress in words and sentences was really stress…
No, just kidding. I have started to learn the “schwa” and now know that it is important when we talk about stress. Because in the unstressed syllables, the vowel sound comes very often out as the /ə/.
To learn about stress could be a fun lesson for the pupils. They would have to speak the language and get the feel of where to the sounds lies in the mouth. They need to think about how the words sound and it would be funny to see their reaction to how a sentence can change when you change the stress.
There is also smart to use some time on this when learning new words. When the pupils hears the right form from the first time it is easier to remember what syllables that are stressed and unstressed.
A funny and good blog entry. You reflect upon why it is important to learn. One “wish” would be to look over some sentences . I did have a hard time reading a few sentences – a tip would be to write more “formal”.
Again, your funny girl! Love the way you start your blog posts. You give us a good reflection on the topic, but it would be nice with a little bit more information about the topic.
