Lesson Activities

  1. 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!

  2. 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!

  3. 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!
