Hello there! Today, we’re going to have lots of fun learning some new sounds. Are you ready? Let’s go!
First, let’s learn the sound of the letter “F.” Can you say “F”? Great job!
Now, let’s pretend to draw the letter “F” in the air with our fingers. Let’s do it together! Close your eyes and try it again. Isn’t that fun?
Do you know any words that start with “F”? How about “fox”? Foxes are furry and fantastic!
Let’s say “F” again and trace it in the air one more time. You’re doing amazing!
Next, we have a special friend, Opus the Octopus, to help us learn the sound of “O.” Can you say “O”? Awesome!
Let’s trace the letter “O” in the air. Now, close your eyes and trace it again. You’re a superstar!
What words can you think of that start with “O”? How about “octopus”? Opus the Octopus is on an orange octagon. Isn’t that cool?
Let’s say “O” again and trace it together. You’re doing great!
Now, let’s meet Gigi the Giraffe! She’s here to help us learn the sound of “G.” Can you say “G”? Wonderful!
Let’s trace the letter “G” in the air. Now, close your eyes and trace it again. You’re doing fantastic!
Can you think of any words that start with “G”? How about “goat”? The golden goat gobbles grapes. Yum!
Let’s say “G” again and trace it in the air. You’re a sound superstar!
Today, we learned the sounds of “F,” “O,” and “G.” You did an amazing job!
Remember, every day is an adventure, and it all starts with being curious. Keep exploring and learning new things!
Great job today! I can’t wait to learn more sounds with you next time. Stay curious and have fun!
Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your home or classroom! Look for objects that start with the sounds “F,” “O,” and “G.” Can you find a fork, an orange, or a glove? Once you find them, say the word out loud and emphasize the first sound. Take turns with a friend and see who can find the most objects!
Sound Art: Create a piece of art using the letters “F,” “O,” and “G.” Use crayons, markers, or colored pencils to draw pictures of things that start with each letter. For example, draw a fox for “F,” an octopus for “O,” and a goat for “G.” Share your artwork with the class and explain what you drew!
Sound Storytime: With a partner, make up a short story using words that start with “F,” “O,” and “G.” For example, “Once upon a time, a friendly fox found an orange octopus on a green hill.” Take turns adding to the story and see how creative you can be. Share your story with the class!
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
