Chant together with the class (track 16): (kick, kick) The letter is ‘K’. The sound is /k/.
The word is ‘kick’. (Do the kicking action.)
Hold the sheet right side up with the bottom of the ‘V’ at your waist. Stand with feet
spread apart like an upside-down ‘V’.
Ask: What letter am I?
Say: The letter is ‘X’. The sound is /ks/. The word is ‘taxi’, the word is 'box’, the word
is 'Max'. Do the ‘X’ action.
Divide the class into groups of four.
Give a ‘V’ sheet to each group.
Instruct each group to divide into pairs.
One pair will make a letter with the ‘V’ sheet and their bodies. The other pair must
guess what the letter is and say the letter names and sounds.
The pairs take turns making and naming the letters.
