Draw one step of the staircase for each word of the paragraph. Start a new staircase for every
stressed word. There usually is more than one staircase in a sentence. New sentences don't have to
start new staircases; they can continue from the previous sentence until you come to a stressed word.
I'll read the beginning sentences. Check the first sentence against the example. Then put the words of
the second sentence on a staircase, based on the way I read it. Remember, I'm exaggerating to make
a point.
V Write out the rest of the staircases.
× Turn the CD back on to check your staircases with the way I read the paragraph. × Pause the
CD again to check your staircases in the Answer Key, beginning on page 193. × Back up the
CD, and listen and repeat my reading of the paragraph while following the staircases in the
Answer Key.
