Hey there! Are you ready to have some fun with letters? Today, we’re going to learn about the sounds that the letters “s” and “l” make. Let’s get started!
The letter “s” makes a sound like a snake. Can you say “ssss”? Great job! It’s like the sound you hear when a snake is hissing.
Now, let’s try the letter “l.” It makes a sound like “llll.” Can you say it? Awesome! It’s like the sound you make when you say “lollipop.”
When we put “s” and “l” together, they make a new sound: “sl.” Let’s try saying it together: “sl.” Perfect!
Now, let’s look at some words that start with “sl.” Try to say them with me:
Wow, you did a fantastic job! Keep practicing these words, and you’ll get even better at reading them.
Here’s a fun activity for you: Can you find things around your house that start with the “sl” sound? Maybe a slide in the playground or a slipper at home? Have fun exploring!
Thanks for learning with me today. Keep practicing, and you’ll be a reading superstar in no time!
Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your home or classroom. Find objects that start with the “s” or “l” sound. For example, you might find a sock for “s” or a lamp for “l.” Share what you find with a friend or family member and practice saying the words together.
Create a Sound Collage: Gather some old magazines or newspapers with the help of an adult. Cut out pictures of things that start with the “sl” sound, like a slide or slippers. Glue them onto a piece of paper to make a “sl” sound collage. Share your collage with the class and explain what each picture is.
Story Time with “Sl” Words: With the help of a teacher or parent, create a short story using as many “sl” words as you can. For example, “Once upon a time, a sleek cat went down the slide and found a slipper.” Draw pictures to go along with your story and share it with your classmates.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
