pronunciation both ours and our future
students.
Similarities: How are these texts similar, connected or related? How are they alike, whether in terms of subject
matter, theme, purpose, tone, etc.? What specific lines and details echo each other or connect?
Obviusly the tems are connected is the place of articulation, how to teach this theme and the
presentacin of the consonants, each author teaches us one of these topics in his own way but
at the same time can be taken as one together.
Differences: How are the two different—again, in terms of subject matter, theme, purpose, tone or anything else?
Where do they “disagree”?
The diference between whis two chapters is the content because in the consonant system is
more explanatory that the chapter 4, in this chapter (3) it is more for the pedagogy of this
topic, to help us as future teachers to better teach these topics with this content
The Two Texts Together: How does reading the two together make you see or understand things you might not
if you read them separately? If the creators or subjects of these texts were to have a conversation, what is one
thing they might say to each other?
It makes you understand the subject much better by having several ways of expressing these
and how they help you understand this so that you can teach it in the future with your own
students.
Questions and Reactions: What questions do these texts and their content raise for you? What reactions do you
have to them, either individually or together?
For the part of questions none, but my reaction to knowing that there is too much content to
read about phonology is shock knowing that much more can be known about this topic.
