Sound It Out

Music by	Sam Pottle

EKA	Episode 1115

"Sound it Out" is a Sesame Street song that takes place in the classroom set also utilized by the Roosevelt Franklin Elementary School skits. At the beginning, Farley asks Same Sound Brown for help in reading the words on the chalkboard. Same Sound Brown teaches Farley to sound out words phonetically, in three parts. Same Sound demonstrates on the word "man", and then Farley tries it out with the word "fun".

Gordon performed the song with Mario in a season 16 episode, and one of the Shagri-Las later covered the song in a season 22 episode.
