Today, we will learn about the sounds that letters make. Each letter has its own sound, and these sounds help us to form words. We will focus on the letters A, B, and C. For example, the letter A makes the sound /a/, like in 'apple'. The letter B makes the sound /b/, like in 'ball'. The letter C makes the sound /k/, like in 'cat'. Let's practice saying these sounds together!
Let's look at some pictures and identify the beginning sounds. For instance, if I show you a picture of an apple, we can say, 'Apple starts with the letter A, and the sound is /a/. Now, what about this picture of a ball? Yes, it starts with B, and the sound is /b/. Finally, here’s a cat. It starts with C, and the sound is /k/. Great job recognizing these sounds!
Now, we will play a sound matching game. I will say a letter, and you will find a picture that starts with that letter. For example, if I say 'A', you will look for a picture of an apple. If I say 'B', find a picture of a ball. If I say 'C', find a picture of a cat. Let's work together and help each other find the right pictures!
For your independent practice, you will receive a worksheet with pictures of different objects. Your task is to color the pictures that start with the letters A, B, and C. Remember to say the sound of the letter as you color. This will help you remember the sounds and the letters they represent. Once you finish, we will share our work with the class!
