xTo teach children how to enunciate each sound correctly requires less labor on the part of the teacher than to impress upon their minds their dissimilarity. They should be informed that they should use their ears as much, if not more, than their eyes; and much patience and ingenuity will be necessary in order to impress upon their minds that letters are the siscns of sounds.
