Lesson Topic
Identifying letters and their sounds
Lesson Outline
Today, Nicholas reviewed the name for "Nn" and "Ss" and the sound for each, using our letter cards. Nicholas practiced printing his first and last name. He then worked on naming the letters in his first name. Nicholas found the foam "S" and "s" and punched them out of the foam board. He then played a "memory game" with the foam "S,' "s," "N," and "n." Cardboard letters (Nn Ss) were placed on the table as well as cardboard cutout pictures. Nicholas selected a picture of his choice and matched it to the correct letter. He matched "seal," "nail," and "saw" to the correct letter. We then stretched each word (Example: nnnnnail). I showed Nicholas a "nickel." We stretched "nickel" and identified the sound and letter at the start of this word. Nicholas then worked on some "nickel rubbings" with his crayons. We sang "The N Song," which I typed for us to use. Next to each verse, Nicholas drew a picture representing what we sung about in the verse. We then took a look at the book "Clifford's ABC." For each letter, Nicholas selected a picture on the page and we identified the letter and the picture.

Lesson Comments
Nicholas was able to tell me the sound for "Nn," but he did not remember the name of the letter. He was able to identify the name and sound for "Ss." Nicholas has difficulty remembering how to print his first name. He confuses the order of the letters. He was able to print his last name on his own. At this time, Nicholas is not able to identify all the letters in his name.
