Overview

We are currently refreshing our shelves and this title is 70% off with promo code: Super70 Rhymes 'n Rhythms is a lively, highly flexible pronunciation resource designed to bring the music of English into the classroom. Featuring 32 original rhymes and rhythmic passages, this photocopiable collection encourages students to read aloud, speak with confidence, and internalize the natural flow of conversational English. Each piece is crafted to highlight specific features of spoken language--rhythm, stress, intonation, linking, reductions, and elision--helping learners move beyond textbook pronunciation toward real-world fluency. The playful, chant-like format makes pronunciation practice enjoyable and memorable. Students quickly begin to ""feel"" the beat of English, improving both their clarity and listening comprehension. Because the rhymes are short, repeatable, and often humorous, they work beautifully as warm-ups, transitions, fluency drills, or energizing speaking activities. Teachers can easily adapt the pieces for individual practice, pair work, group performances, or whole-class choral reading. This resource works well with learners of all ages--youth, adults, newcomers, and advanced speakers alike--because it breaks pronunciation into manageable, meaningful patterns. An optional audio program provides accurate modeling of natural rhythm and stress, allowing students to hear the musicality of English and practice independently. Fun, dynamic, and pedagogically sound, Rhymes 'n Rhythms transforms pronunciation instruction into an engaging classroom experience that supports clearer communication, better listening, and greater confidence.
