Today, we are going to have fun with the letter ‘M’! The letter ‘M’ makes a special sound. Let’s listen and say it together!
Can you say “mmmm”? That’s the sound the letter ‘M’ makes. It’s like when you taste something yummy!
Let’s try saying some words that start with the ‘M’ sound. Are you ready?
Mouse
Say it with me: Mouse, mouse, mouse. A mouse is a little animal that likes to nibble on cheese!
Melon
Now, let’s say: Melon, melon, melon. A melon is a sweet and juicy fruit. Yum!
Great job! Keep practicing the ‘M’ sound by finding more words that start with ‘M’. Maybe you can find things around your house that start with ‘M’, like milk or mittens!
Draw a picture of a mouse or a melon and show it to your family. Tell them about the ‘M’ sound you learned today!
Remember, learning new sounds is like a fun adventure. Keep exploring and have fun with the letter ‘M’!
Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your home or classroom. Look for objects that start with the ‘M’ sound. Can you find a mug, a mat, or maybe even a magazine? Make a list or draw pictures of the things you find. Share your discoveries with a friend or family member and practice saying the ‘M’ sound together.
M Sound Storytime: Create a short story using as many ‘M’ words as you can. Start with “Once upon a time, there was a magical mouse…” and see where your imagination takes you. You can draw pictures to go along with your story and share it with your class or family. How many ‘M’ words can you include?
Melon Tasting: If possible, try tasting a melon with your class or at home. Talk about the taste, texture, and color. While enjoying the melon, practice saying the word “melon” and emphasize the ‘M’ sound. Discuss other foods that start with ‘M’ and maybe try tasting them too!
Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
“Let’s listen and repeat the ‘m’ sound.
Mouse, mouse, mouse.
Melon, melon, melon.”
