Intonation practice worksheet for students to draw intonation patterns in sentences.

To solve the problem of drawing the intonation pattern for each sentence, we need to analyze the type of sentence (e.g., question, statement, or tag question) and determine how the pitch changes as the sentence is spoken. Here's a breakdown of each sentence with the appropriate intonation pattern:

1. Do you have a sister?

- Type: Yes/No Question
- Intonation Pattern: Rising intonation (↑)
- Explanation: Yes/No questions typically rise in pitch at the end.
- Arrows: `Do you have a sister? ↑`

2. You like math, don't you?

- Type: Tag Question
- Intonation Pattern: Falling on the main clause, rising on the tag
- Explanation: The main clause ("You like math") falls in pitch, while the tag ("don't you?") rises.
- Arrows: `You like math ↓, don't you? ↑`

3. This is hard.

- Type: Statement
- Intonation Pattern: Falling intonation (↓)
- Explanation: Statements typically fall in pitch at the end.
- Arrows: `This is hard. ↓`

4. Did you see that? It was a bird.

- Type: Two sentences: Yes/No Question + Statement
- Intonation Pattern: Rising on the question, falling on the statement
- Explanation: The question ("Did you see that?") rises in pitch, while the statement ("It was a bird.") falls.
- Arrows: `Did you see that? ↑ It was a bird. ↓`

5. Keep trying. This will get better.

- Type: Two statements
- Intonation Pattern: Falling on both sentences
- Explanation: Both sentences are statements, so they both fall in pitch.
- Arrows: `Keep trying. ↓ This will get better. ↓`

6. Have you ever been in an airplane?

- Type: Yes/No Question
- Intonation Pattern: Rising intonation (↑)
- Explanation: Similar to Sentence 1, this is a yes/no question, so it rises in pitch.
- Arrows: `Have you ever been in an airplane? ↑`

7. Will you help me? I am having a hard time.

- Type: Two sentences: Yes/No Question + Statement
- Intonation Pattern: Rising on the question, falling on the statement
- Explanation: The question ("Will you help me?") rises in pitch, while the statement ("I am having a hard time.") falls.
- Arrows: `Will you help me? ↑ I am having a hard time. ↓`

8. Did you get my letter?

- Type: Yes/No Question
- Intonation Pattern: Rising intonation (↑)
- Explanation: Similar to Sentences 1 and 6, this is a yes/no question, so it rises in pitch.
- Arrows: `Did you get my letter? ↑`

Final Answer:

```
1. Do you have a sister? ↑
2. You like math ↓, don't you? ↑
