Things like:
Soot
Wool
Stool
Tool
Cool
All those words sounds the same to me with a more of an O sound than an UH sound like in good, should, and things like that.
I learned however that soot sounds more like Good than tool or stool... same with wool!
WHO KNEW?!
At one point I was just confusing myself and asked my cooperating teacher and she announced how the words should sound, and all the kids I helped sighed real big and say, "I need to change that!"
I laughed but also felt bad.
Moral of the story.
Emilie should not teach "oo" words. :D Except in the North maybe!! :D
