WATCH ME!




Watch this Practice Video



Our MRI helper may ask you to make funny sounds, like the "eeeeee" sound or the "sssssss" sound, just like you practiced.

They will ask you to make these sounds for as long as you can, and they might even challenge you to see who can make them for longer.

Now it's your turn! Use the timer below see how long you can say each sound. Ready? Go!


When you're all done practicing, write down your longest time for each sound on your special certificate!

COLOR ME!
