Here's a short poem to help you practice S, Z, and SH sounds.
Dessert Time at the Zooquarium.
A zebra sipped a milkshake.
A serpent swam in cream.
Hippos splashed and frolicked.
In a gurgling chocolate stream.
The zoo was full of visitors
who buzzed like busy bees.
And watched the sharks swim lazily
through orange soda seas.
The sounds were like an orchestra.
As creatures chewed and slurped.
At closing time, the whole place shook.
An elephant had burped.
