Hey there! Are you ready to have some fun? Let’s move our bodies and learn the alphabet together. We’ll pretend to be different things and make silly sounds. Are you excited? Let’s go!
First, let’s move our bodies like a monster. Can you chomp your arms like a big, hungry shark? Now, pump up your muscles like a strong bodybuilder. And finally, take a bow like you’re a shining star on stage. Great job!
Now, let’s pretend to be different things for each letter of the alphabet. Are you ready? Here we go!
A is for alligator. Snap your arms like an alligator’s mouth!
B is for bounce. Jump up and down like a bouncing ball!
C is for cold. Shiver like you’re in the snow!
D is for dive. Pretend to dive into a pool!
E is for exercise. Stretch your arms and legs!
F is for fishing. Cast your fishing line into the water!
G is for gooey. Wiggle your fingers like they’re sticky!

I is for insect. Crawl around like a little bug!
J is for jiggle. Shake your body like jelly!
K is for karate. Show your best karate moves!

N is for nod. Nod your head up and down!
O is for opera. Sing like an opera singer!
P is for pull. Pretend to pull a big rope!
Q is for quiet. Tiptoe around quietly!
R is for run. Run in place as fast as you can!

Y is for yawn. Stretch your arms and yawn like you’re sleepy!
Z is for zig-zag. Move in a zig-zag pattern like a lightning bolt!
Wow, you did an amazing job acting out the alphabet! You moved, you laughed, and you learned. Keep practicing and have fun with the alphabet every day!
Alphabet Adventure Walk: Take a walk around your home or school and look for objects that start with each letter of the alphabet. Can you find an apple for A or a book for B? As you find each object, act out the corresponding movement from the lesson. For example, when you find an apple, snap your arms like an alligator’s mouth!
Create Your Own Alphabet Movements: Think of new actions for each letter of the alphabet. For example, for the letter A, you could pretend to be an astronaut floating in space. Share your new movements with a friend or family member and teach them your alphabet dance!
Alphabet Story Time: Choose a letter and create a short story using words that start with that letter. For example, for the letter B, you might say, “A big bear bounced a blue ball.” Act out the story using the movements from the lesson. Can you make a story for each letter?
