Fun with the Letter D! 🐉

Objective: Introduce the letter D, its sound, and related words through an engaging story and interactive activities.

Introduction

Story Time: "Daisy's Delightful Day!" 📚

Gather the children in a circle and set the scene for an adventurous story.

"Today, we are going to meet Daisy, a darling duck who lives by a dazzling pond. Daisy loves to have a delightful day filled with discoveries! Let's hear about the dear friends she meets and the fun things she does!"

Story Narrative

As you read, emphasize the words that start with the letter D: duck, dazzling, delightful, discoveries, dear. You can use a cheerful tone to keep the kids excited.

*Example: "One morning, Daisy the duck woke up and decided it was a delightful day for a swim in the dazzling pond. She quacked, 'Time for adventures!'"

Encourage the kids to repeat the letter D sound when they hear it.

Interactive Activity: "D Gallery" 🎨

After the story, invite the children to participate in a creative letter D gallery using the following steps:

  1. Doodle Time: Ask the children to draw something that starts with the letter D. This could be a dog, a drum, or even a dinosaur!
  2. Display: As they finish, create a "D Gallery" on the classroom wall to showcase their artwork.
  3. Sharing: Invite each child to share their drawing with the class, encouraging them to say the word and make the D sound.

Closing Reflection

To wrap up the lesson, gather the children once more.

"Today, we had so much fun with Daisy and discovered many things that begin with the letter D. Can anyone tell me their favorite 'D' word from today?”

Encouragement: "Remember, the letter D is delightful, just like you all are!"


This engaging lesson will help children recognize the letter D, associate it with fun words, and encourage creativity through drawing and sharing. Happy learning! 🎉
