- Aa.Emphasize that the lips, teeth, and tongue do not affect sound production.
- Bb.Suggest that the tongue and lips work solely for vowel sounds.
- Cc.Describe how the lips can stop or shape airflow, the teeth assist with certain sounds, and the tongue moves to various positions
- Dd.Mention that sound is mainly shaped by vocal cord movement and not by the lips, teeth, or tongue.

- CC) Listening for the vibration in /v/ compared to /f/
- DD) Speaking faster to blur the difference
9WHAT IS THE ROLE OF THE VOCAL CORDS IN SPEECH PRODUCTION?
- AA) They vibrate to create sound waves
- BB) They direct air from the lungs to the mouth.

- Aa.Emphasize that voiced sounds are only produced when the tongue moves near the vocal cords
- Bb.Describe how the vocal cords vibrate as air passes from the lungs, creating voiced sounds
- Cc.Explain that the vocal cords remain still, and sound is created by air simply flowing through them
- Dd.Suggest that voiced sounds happen only when air is exhaled slowly through the nose.
