## 78.1 New Sound

{% embed url="<https://youtu.be/2FJL8GtvtqA>" %}

#### Purpose and Procedure

In this task, students will learn the sound /ks/ as in *six*.

It is actually a combination of two sounds: the initial quick sound /k/ and then a continuous sound /sss/, which is why there is a dot beneath it.

Like with all other continuous sounds, hold this one for two seconds.

## 78.3 Patterns -VCe

#### Purpose and Procedure

In this task, you continue to teach students about words with a Vowel-Consonant-*e* (-VCe) pattern, but this time the earlier vowel in all of the words is *o*, so the silent *e* will always change the sound from /ŏ/ to /ō/.

## 78.4 Similar Sounds

#### Purpose and Procedure

Pronounce every *n* in this task as /ŋ/.

You don’t need to pronounce the /g/ at the end of *sing, sang*, or *song*, but you will pronounce the /k/ at the end of *sink*, *sank*, and *sunk*.
