Hey everyone! Are you ready to have some fun with words? Let’s do the Digraph Rap together!
First, we have the letters O and Y. When we put them together, they make the sound “oy”!
Isn’t that cool? You put O and Y together, and you get “oy”!
Next, let’s look at the letters A and I. When they come together, they make the sound “ai”!
See how A and I make “ai”? It’s like magic!
Now, let’s try O and W. Together, they make the sound “ow”!
When O and W team up, you get “ow”!
Finally, we have A and Y. When they join, they make the sound “ay”!
Put A and Y together, and you get “ay”!
You did an amazing job learning these sounds! Give yourself a big clap! Remember, reading and writing can be so much fun when you know your sounds. Keep practicing, and you’ll be a reading superstar!
Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your home or classroom! Look for objects that have the “oy,” “ai,” “ow,” or “ay” sounds in their names. For example, you might find a “toy” for “oy” or a “tray” for “ay.” Write down or draw the objects you find and share them with your friends or family.
Digraph Art: Create a fun art project using the digraphs you’ve learned. Draw a picture of a “rainbow” and label it with the “ow” sound. Or, draw a “snail” and label it with the “ai” sound. Use lots of colors and be creative! Display your artwork to show how digraphs can be found in everyday things.
Story Time: Make up a short story using as many “oy,” “ai,” “ow,” and “ay” words as you can. For example, “The boy played with his toy on a rainy day.” Share your story with a friend or family member and see if they can spot all the digraphs you used!
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
