Let’s learn about the letter D! It’s the fourth letter in the alphabet, right after C and before E. The letter D helps us make lots of words and sounds. Let’s see what makes D special!
The letter D comes in two sizes: big and small.
– Big D: This is the large D. We use it at the start of sentences or names.
– Little d: This is the small d. We use it in most other places.
Writing D is fun! Here’s how you can do it:
– Big D: Draw a straight line down. Then, make a big curve from the top to the bottom of the line.
– Little d: Start with a small circle. Then, draw a line down from the top of the circle.
The letter D makes a “duh” sound, like in “dolphin.” This sound helps us know what words start with D.
Here are some words that begin with the “duh” sound:
– Dolphin: A smart and playful sea animal.
– Door: Something we open to go into a room.
– Dinosaur: Big reptiles that lived a long time ago.
– Dessert: A yummy treat we eat after a meal.
The letter D is important for making lots of words and sounds. Learning to see, write, and say the letter D helps us read and talk better. Next, we’ll learn about the letter E. Let’s keep exploring the alphabet together!
