Getting Started with the Letter G!

Introduction to the Lesson

Hello, little learners! Today, we are going on a "G" adventure! Are you ready to explore the wonderful world of the letter G?

Storytime: "Goldie the Grumpy Goat"

To kick off our lesson, let's gather around for a fun story!

Storytime Prompt

(Hold up a picture of a goat)

"Once upon a time, in a green grassy meadow, there lived a goat named Goldie. Goldie had a grumpy face but a golden heart! She loved jumping around, eating grass, and playing with her friends. But Goldie was always a bit grumpy. Can you make a grumpy face like Goldie? Grrr!"

Questions for Discussion

• What sound does the letter G make?
• Can you think of words that start with the letter G? (Encourage answers like "goat," "grass," "giraffe," etc.)

Interactive Activity: "G Sound Treasure Hunt"

Treasure Hunt Instructions

Now that we have met Goldie, it’s time for an exciting treasure hunt!

1. Materials Needed:

   • Pictures or toys representing letter G words (e.g., goat, grapes, globe, girl, etc.)
   • A basket or bag to collect treasures.

2. Activity Steps:

   • Scatter the pictures or toys around the classroom.
   • Tell the children, "Let’s hunt for items that start with the letter G. When you find something, hold it up and shout ‘G!’”
   • As they find each item, let them describe what it is and how it relates to Goldie's story.

Wrap-up Discussion

After the treasure hunt, gather the children and review the items they found.

• "What did you find that starts with the letter G?"
• "How does Goldie feel about her grass? Is it a good snack for her?"

Conclusion

Today, we learned about the letter G and made friends with Goldie the goat! Remember, G is for so many fun things. Can you think of other words starting with G after class?

Goodbye to Goldie

"As we say goodbye to Goldie, let's all make a happy face now! G is for giggles. Can you giggle with me?"
