Hey there, friends! Are you ready to have some fun with sounds? Let’s make some silly noises together. You can say them out loud with me. Here we go!
Can you say “S s s spider”? Let’s try it together: S s s spider! Great job! Spiders are little creatures that have eight legs. They like to spin webs. Can you pretend to be a spider and wiggle your fingers like legs?
Now, let’s meet the turtle. Can you say “T t t turtle”? Let’s say it together: T t t turtle! Awesome! Turtles have hard shells on their backs. They move slowly and love to swim. Can you pretend to be a turtle and move slowly?
Now, let’s go up! Can you say “U u u up”? Let’s say it together: U u u up! Fantastic! When we say “up,” we can think about flying like a bird or jumping high. Can you pretend to fly or jump up high?
You’re doing great! Let’s say all the sounds one more time. Ready?
S s s spider
T t t turtle
U u u up
Yay! You did it! Keep practicing these sounds and have fun pretending to be different animals. You’re a superstar!
Spider Web Hunt: Let’s go on a spider web hunt! With a grown-up, explore your backyard or a nearby park to find real spider webs. How many can you find? Count them together. Remember, spiders are our friends, so just look and don’t touch. Afterward, draw a picture of a spider and its web. Can you make the “S s s” sound while you draw?
Turtle Shell Craft: Create your own turtle shell using a paper plate. Decorate it with crayons or markers to make it look like a turtle’s shell. Once you’re done, pretend to be a turtle by wearing your shell and moving slowly around the room. Can you say “T t t turtle” as you move?
Up, Up, and Away Game: Let’s play a jumping game! Find a safe space where you can jump. Each time you jump, say “U u u up!” How high can you jump? You can also pretend to be a bird flying up in the sky. Can you think of other things that go up? Share your ideas with a friend or family member.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
