Today, we are going to have fun with letters! We will learn about the letter “s” and the letter “t”. The letter “s” makes the sound /s/, like a snake hissing. The letter “t” makes the sound /t/, like a ticking clock.
When we put “s” and “t” together, they make a new sound: /st/. It’s like a little magic trick! You can hear this sound at the end of many words.
Here are some words that end with the /st/ sound. Try to say them with me:
You did an amazing job learning the /st/ sound! Keep practicing, and you will get even better. Remember, learning can be fun and exciting!
There are many more sounds and words to discover. Keep listening and practicing, and you will become a super reader in no time!
Thanks for learning with us today!
Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your home or classroom. Look for objects or pictures that have the /st/ sound in their names. For example, you might find a “dust” cloth or a “post” card. Share what you find with a friend or family member and practice saying the words together.
Word Creation Game: Use letter cards or magnetic letters to create new words that end with the /st/ sound. Start with simple words like “fast” or “nest” and see how many different words you can make. Try to use these words in a sentence and share your sentence with the class or your family.
Story Time: Listen to a story or read a book with a grown-up. As you read, listen carefully for words that have the /st/ sound. Every time you hear one, clap your hands or raise your hand. After the story, try to remember and list all the /st/ words you heard.
Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript:
