Today, we’re going to have fun learning about a special letter in the alphabet. Can you guess what it is? It’s the letter N! Let’s see what we can discover about this neat letter.
The letter N comes in two sizes. There’s a big N, which looks like this: N. And there’s a small n, which looks like this: n. Can you try drawing them in the air with your finger? Great job!
Do you like noodles? Noodles are yummy and start with the letter N. Imagine you have a big bowl of noodles. You can smell them with your nose. Nose also starts with N! Isn’t that fun?
Let’s think of some more words that start with N. How about nest? Birds make nests to keep their eggs safe. And there’s night, when the sky gets dark, and we see the stars. Can you think of any other words that start with N?
Now that we know more about the letter N, let’s sing the ABC song together. Ready? A, B, C, D, E, F, G… Keep going until you get to N! Singing the alphabet helps us remember all the letters.
You’ve done an amazing job learning about the letter N today. Remember, N is for noodles, nose, nest, and night. Keep practicing, and you’ll be an alphabet expert in no time!
Noodle Necklace Craft: Let’s make a noodle necklace! Gather some uncooked pasta noodles and string. Help the children thread the noodles onto the string to create their own necklace. As they work, encourage them to say words that start with the letter N. This activity helps reinforce the sound and shape of the letter N while engaging in a fun, hands-on project.
Nature Walk: Go on a nature walk and look for things that start with the letter N. Can you find a nest in a tree? What about a nut on the ground? Encourage the children to collect small items or take pictures of things they find. After the walk, discuss the items and how they relate to the letter N.
Night Sky Observation: If possible, plan a night sky observation. Look up at the stars and the moon. Talk about how “night” starts with N. Ask the children to draw a picture of what they see in the night sky. This activity helps them connect the concept of night with the letter N and encourages them to observe the world around them.
