My First Letters – Consonant Letter Sounds B and V

Hello friends! Today, we are going to learn about two special letters: B and V. Let’s have some fun with them!

The Letter B

Let’s start with the letter B. Can you say “B”? Great job! Now, let’s learn how to write it.

Writing the Big B

First, draw a straight line down. Then, make two big curves—one on top and one below. It looks like a butterfly! Try it with a pencil and paper.

Writing the Little b

For the little b, draw a line down and then a curve to the right. It looks like a lemur’s tail! Give it a try!

Now, let’s think of some words that start with B. How about “baby”? That’s right! And “boat”—have you ever been on a boat? “Broccoli” is another word that starts with B. Yum!

Don’t forget “bike.” Riding a bike is so much fun! Remember to be careful!

The Letter V

Now, let’s talk about the letter V. Can you say “V”? Very good! Let’s see how to write it.

Writing the Big V

Start at the top, draw a line down, and then go back up. It looks like a slice of pizza! Try it out!

Writing the Little v

For the little v, start at the top, go down, and then back up. It looks like a swan! Give it a try!

Let’s find some words that start with V. “Voice” is one. Have you heard your voice? “Video” is another word. Do you like watching videos?

What about “violin”? It starts with V too. The sound of a violin is beautiful! And “vampire” starts with V. Watch out for those sharp teeth!

We can sing a song about Vince the vampire. He has a very nice voice!

Keep Learning!

  • Can you think of other words that start with the letter B or V? Maybe you can find some in your house or outside. What are they?
  • Have you ever done something that starts with the letter B, like riding a bike or going on a boat? What was it like?
  • Do you have a favorite song or video that starts with the letter V? Why do you like it?
  1. Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your home or classroom! Find objects that start with the letter B and the letter V. For example, you might find a ball for B or a vase for V. Can you find at least three objects for each letter? Share what you found with a friend or family member!

  2. Letter Art: Create a piece of art using the letters B and V. Use crayons, markers, or colored pencils to draw big and little Bs and Vs on a piece of paper. Decorate them with things that start with those letters. For example, you can draw a butterfly next to the B or a violin next to the V. Display your artwork in your room or classroom!

  3. Story Time: Make up a short story using words that start with B and V. You can start with something like, “Once upon a time, a brave bear and a friendly vampire went on an adventure…” Share your story with a friend or family member and see if they can add more words that start with B and V!

Hello everybody! Today I’m presenting the first consonant in the alphabet: the letter B.

[Applause]

Brilliant introduction! How are you all? It’s time to begin with the letter B. Let’s see how to pronounce it. Brilliant! Now let’s show you how to write it. It’s easy, don’t worry!

We draw a line downward, and now we need to draw two big curves—one, two. This one has to be bigger. Bam! You’ve done it! It looks like a little…

[Music]

Let’s try the lowercase. You start by making a line down and give it a curve right here. Brilliant! Look, it’s like a lemur! Try it at home with pen and paper; it’s super easy!

I am in a bunch of words like “baby.” This is “baby B.” See you later, B! The first letter in the word “boat” is B. Have you ever been on a boat?

“Broccoli”—which letter does it start with? It’s B! You’re so good!

[Music]

“Bike” is another word with B. Be careful on that bike! So much fun! How about a beautiful song?

Let’s try to help him sleep. Oh boy, this baby doesn’t like slow songs. Let’s try something a little more fun!

Very well! Let’s talk about the letter V first. My sound…

[Music]

I can’t hear you! Very good!

[Applause]

Let’s start to write it. We start here and draw a line down, then up again. It’s really easy! Victory!

Very well, very good! It looks like a pizza! Now let’s look at the lowercase. We start here and go up, curve down, and up again, and a little bit down. Phew, that was a bit tricky! But look, it looks like a swan! Try it at home with pen and paper; it’s super easy!

Now let me show you some words that start with V. “Voice” starts with V. Have you heard my velvety voice?

The first letter in the word “video” is V. I love watching Smile and Learn videos, don’t you?

What about “violin”? What letter does it start with? V! Very good! That violin sound is my favorite.

“Vampire” also starts with V. Be careful because those teeth are very sharp!

Shall we sing?

“Vince the vampire” had a very nice voice. Right on stage, his throat got tight, feeling his nerves. I said, “All right, a violin!”
