Lessons Unit 1, lesson 8

uː as in blue

One long vowel, on its own page. The ː mark means hold it — hear it alone, then in the words, then say them yourself.

the oo in blue

Round your lips tightly, as for a kiss, and hold: bluuue. Keep the sound steady all the way through.

Now say it yourself

Read each word from its sheet, out loud, three times. Where there's a play button, listen first and copy what you hear. Slow is fine — clear beats fast.
