Hello, little friend! Today, we are going to have fun learning about a special sound. This sound is made by two letters: “c” and “r.” When they come together, they make the “cr” sound. Can you say “cr” with me? Great job!
Let’s think of some words that start with the “cr” sound. How about “crab”? A crab is a little creature that lives in the sea and walks sideways. Can you pretend to be a crab and walk sideways? That’s fun!
Another word is “crayon.” We use crayons to draw and color beautiful pictures. Do you like to color with crayons? What is your favorite color?
Let’s learn a few more words with the “cr” sound. There’s “crown,” like the one a king or queen wears. You can pretend to wear a crown on your head. How royal you look!
And there’s “crash,” like when toy cars bump into each other. Can you make a “crash” sound? Be careful not to crash too hard!
Now, let’s practice saying the “cr” sound together. Say “crab,” “crayon,” “crown,” and “crash.” You’re doing an amazing job!
Here’s a fun activity for you. Draw a picture of a crab wearing a crown and color it with your crayons. You can even make up a story about your crab. Maybe it is the king of the sea!
Remember, the more you practice, the better you will get at saying the “cr” sound. Keep listening for “cr” words in stories and songs. You are a wonderful learner!
Thanks for learning with me today. See you next time for more fun with sounds!
Crab Walk Race: Organize a fun crab walk race with your friends or family. Pretend to be crabs and walk sideways from one end of the room to the other. As you race, listen for the “cr” sound in words. Every time you hear a “cr” word, stop and say it out loud. Can you think of more “cr” words while you play?
Crayon Color Hunt: Go on a color hunt around your house or classroom with your crayons. Pick a crayon and find objects that match its color. As you find each item, say the word “crayon” and the color. For example, “crayon, red.” How many colorful objects can you find?
Create a “Cr” Story: Use your imagination to create a short story using as many “cr” words as you can. You might start with a crab who finds a crown and goes on an adventure. Draw pictures to go along with your story and share it with your family or friends. How many “cr” words did you use?
