Let’s have fun learning about the letter M! M is a special letter in the alphabet. It can be big, like this: M, or small, like this: m. Can you say “M”? Great job!
There are many words that start with the letter M. Let’s think of some together! How about “monkey”? Monkeys are funny animals that love to swing in trees. Can you pretend to be a monkey and swing your arms? Good job!
Another word is “mouse.” Mice are tiny animals with little ears and long tails. Can you squeak like a mouse? Squeak, squeak!
Now, let’s play a game. I’ll say a word, and you tell me if it starts with the letter M. Ready?
Yes, it does! The moon is big and bright in the night sky.
No, it doesn’t. But that’s okay! The sun is bright and shiny during the day.
Let’s sing a little song about M. Ready? Here we go!
“Big M, Small M, Bravo for M! The monkey sees a mouse, and they both say, ‘Yay for M!’”
Wasn’t that fun? You did a great job learning about the letter M today!
Now that you know about M, try to find more things around you that start with M. Maybe you’ll see a mug, a map, or even a muffin! Keep exploring and have fun with letters!
M Hunt: Go on a scavenger hunt around your home or classroom to find items that start with the letter M. Can you find a mug, a map, or a muffin? Make a list or draw pictures of the M items you discover. Share your findings with a friend or family member and see if they can find more M items!
M Sound Adventure: Listen carefully to the sounds around you. Can you hear any words that start with the letter M? Maybe you hear someone say “mom” or “music.” Each time you hear an M word, clap your hands or make the M sound. How many M words can you find in one day?
Create an M Story: Use your imagination to create a short story using as many M words as you can. You might start with, “Once upon a time, a monkey and a mouse went on an adventure to find a magical moon.” Draw pictures to go along with your story and share it with your class or family.
