In this lesson children will be introduced to the Letter D and the sound it makes. They will also be introduced to some words that begin with D like Dog, Duck, Dinosaur, Diamond, the verb Drink and the country Dominican Republic. Try to find or make props in advance to make it fun.
GREETINGS/MANNERS
Good Morning how are you? Song
If you like, you can begin with a story whose main character (or topic) begins with D. Two interesting D books that I've read to my kids are The Wonky Donkey and Where Do Diggers Sleep at Night.

SHAPES
