Children get excited over puffy paint so here is a fun way to learn letter Pp!
Forest Fun – Lesson 17
“I can name letter p and the /p/ sound.”
Objective: To identify letter Pp and the /p/ sound. (RF.K.1, RF.K.3)
Materials: letter p sandpaper card, construction paper, puffy paint.
Procedures: Display the letter p sandpaper card. Say, “This is letter p. The sound of p is /p/.” (Be careful to say only the /p/ sound without adding “uh” to it.) Model how letter p is formed. Have your child trace letter p on the sandpaper card using her index finger. While tracing, she will repeat, “p says /p/, p says /p/.” Make a letter p on construction paper and cut it out. Have your child decorate it with puffy paint.
Conclusion: Ask your child to identify p and to say 3 words that begin with /p/.
