Today, we’re going to have fun learning about the letter S! Are you ready? Let’s go!
There are two ways to write the letter S. We have the big S and the small s. Can you try drawing them in the air with your finger? Great job!
Let’s think of some words that start with the letter S. How about “spider”? Spiders are little creatures that spin webs. Can you say “spider”? Good!
Another word is “snake.” Snakes are long and slither on the ground. Can you say “snake”? Awesome!
Let’s make the S sound together. It sounds like a hissing snake: sssss. Can you do it? Sssss. Fantastic!
Let’s sing a little song with the letter S. You can make up your own tune:
“S is for spider, s is for snake,
Big S, small s, sounds we make.
Sssss, sssss, sing along,
Learning letters is so much fun!”
Now, let’s practice finding things around us that start with the letter S. Can you find something in your room that starts with S? Maybe a sock or a spoon?
Great! You’re doing an amazing job learning about the letter S. Keep practicing, and soon you’ll know all your letters!
S Scavenger Hunt: Go on a scavenger hunt around your home or classroom to find items that start with the letter S. You can look for things like a sock, spoon, or even a stuffed animal. Once you’ve found them, try to say the name of each item out loud, emphasizing the S sound. Can you find at least three items?
S Sound Safari: Take a walk outside and listen carefully for sounds that remind you of the letter S. Maybe you’ll hear the wind making a sssss sound, or perhaps you’ll spot a squirrel scurrying by. Share what you hear with a friend or family member and practice making the S sound together.
Create an S Collage: Gather some old magazines or newspapers and cut out pictures of things that start with the letter S. Glue them onto a piece of paper to create your very own S collage. Once you’re done, show your collage to someone and explain what each picture is and how it starts with the letter S.
