Here is an alphabetical selection for classroom fun. They also practice pronunciation as students try to get their tongues around the sounds. For best results of the single-liners, say each one 5 times in quick succession. Some of the seemingly simplest are the most difficult to repeat – try Greek grapes or Irish wristwatch!
Students can write their own, perhaps beginning each with a name. e.g. Silly Sakis sings short songs.
