Sound Story Pictures
The sound story is used to teach the sounds in the English language and the letter or letter pattern which represents each sound. Each picture represents a specific sound. For example, a picture of a dog growling shows the /r/ sound. It is important to understand that the pictures are not used as key words, as in d/dog. For example the picture of the growling dog does not show the d sound. Is shows the actual sound that is heard when the dog growls.
You can listen to the sound story to hear the sound for each sound picture under the Audio tab on the main menu.

Sound Story Picture File - Color Pictures
You can see the sound pictures below. Each picture represents a speech sound in the English language. Notice that these are NOT key word pictures. The pictures represent the sound itself, for example the call of the crow is "aw, aw, aw," the dog growls "rrr," and the sound of the violin is "l, l, l." This approach makes it easier for students to learn the sounds for the letters of the alphabet. Some beginning students are not yet able to isolate beginning sounds in key words. For some pictures the beginning sound for the name of the picture is the same as the sound it represents (ball/b, wind/w), but this is accidental.
