  • Ollo loves painting letters. What is your favorite way to practice letters? Do you like drawing, singing, or maybe using toys?
  • Have you ever seen the letter G in your favorite book or on a sign? What was it, and what did it say?
  • G Sound Hunt: Go on a “G Sound Hunt” around your home or classroom. Look for objects that start with the “guh” sound, like “glue,” “glove,” or “game.” Make a list or draw pictures of the items you find. Share your discoveries with a friend or family member and see if they can find more “G” objects!

  • G Collage Creation: Create a “G Collage” using magazines, newspapers, or printed images. Cut out pictures of things that start with the letter G, such as “giraffe,” “guitar,” or “garden.” Glue them onto a piece of paper to make a colorful collage.
