119.7 Word Parts

Purpose and Procedure

This task introduces students to the be- beginning.

It is a continuation of the series introducing students to words with beginnings that are unstressed first syllables in which the letter e can make the schwa sound (/ə/).

Because it is especially important that students hear the schwa sound in these words before repeating them, you will use the sound buttons in this task rather than reading the words yourself.
