In today’s lesson, we explored the letter “O,” learning that it can produce two distinct sounds: “ah” as in “octopus” and “oo” as in “ocean.” We also discovered fun words that start with “O,” such as “ostrich” and “otter,” and learned that “O” can represent the shape of an oval. The lesson encouraged continued exploration and enjoyment in learning about letters and sounds.

Welcome to the World of the Letter “O”!

Hello, little explorer! Today, we are going to have fun learning about the letter “O.” Are you ready? Let’s go!

The Sounds of “O”

The letter “O” is special because it can make two different sounds. Isn’t that cool?

Sound One: “Ah”

Sometimes, “O” sounds like “ah,” just like when we say “octopus.” Can you say “octopus”? Great job!

Sound Two: “Oo”

Other times, “O” sounds like “oo,” like in the word “ocean.” Can you say “ocean”? Awesome!

Words That Start with “O”

Let’s learn some fun words that start with “O.”

Ostrich

“O” is for “ostrich.” An ostrich is a big bird that can’t fly but can run really fast. Say “ostrich.” Well done!

Otter

“O” is for “otter.” Otters are playful animals that love to swim in the water. Say “otter.” Fantastic!

Shapes and “O”

Did you know that “O” can also be a shape? It’s called an “oval.” An oval looks like a stretched-out circle. Can you say “oval”? You’re doing great!
