Intonation   

DOWN ENDING fact, statement

The Rise and Fall of Intonation When we speak, our intonation is ALWAYS going up and done, but when we ask questions, when does it go up and down??? YES/NO questions Other questions

A Syllable… what is it?! A syllable is a part of a word. In English, a syllable has one vowel sound and may have several consonant sounds. (An easy way to count syllables is to count how many times your chin drops when you say the word.) Waiting = wai [chin drops here] ting = 2 syllables

Vowel: a, e, i, o, u Consonant: the others letters of the alphabet (b, c, d..)
