One of the projects that I usually do in my Phonetics courses, especially if the quarter happens to be the last quarter of the year is the: Sound Costume. I have generally asked my students to represent a Consonant Sound, but this time, as I am teaching Phonetics 2, I am asking you to represent a vowel sound.
Remember that you have to:
1. Select a vowel sound.
2. Think of a character / Costume that could represent the sound. For example: Black Cat.
3. Create a slogan of 3-5 lines for your character using mainly words with the vowel sound. For example: I am a Black Cat. I have a hat. I killed rats... etc". Try to use as many words as you can.
4. Be creative and original.
Here are some of my former students pictures (hopefully, they don't mind I post their pictures here)
See you in class!
