  1. J Sound Hunt: Go on a ‘j’ sound hunt around your home or classroom. Look for objects that start with the ‘j’ sound, like a jar, juice, or jelly. Once you find them, gather them together and share with a friend or family member what you found. Can you think of any other ‘j’ words that you didn’t find?

  2. J Sound Art: Create a collage using pictures from magazines or drawings of things that start with the ‘j’ sound. You can include items like a jaguar, a jigsaw puzzle, or a jam jar. Once your collage is complete, present it to the class and explain each item you included.

  3. J Sound Storytime: With a partner, make up a short story using as many ‘j’ words as you can. For example, “Jack the jaguar jumped over a jar of jelly.” Take turns adding to the story and see how many ‘j’ words you can include. Share your story with the class and see who can come up with the most creative one!
