Sample Lesson Plan - Teaching Letter 'D'

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





RESPONDING TO GREETINGS/SALUTATIONS
Hello little genius
It’s Teacher _______. How are you doing? Very good? I’m doing good too. Let’s begin!

Today we are going to be learning about a special letter. 
i. Can anyone guess what letter that is? (Give children time to guess)
This letter makes the sound Ddd.
If you guessed D you're correct

ii.  D is for Duck; D is for Dog ; D is for Dinosaur
iii. Can you find D on this chart?
iv. Can you think of other words that begin with D?

Where in the world are you from? (D)

ALPHABET/COUNTRY of the Week
Is there anyone here from the Dominican Republic?

SONGS that feature D words - Five little Ducks. Did you ever see a lassie?

LANGUAGE - READING READINESS
Sight Words - WORD OF THE WEEK - 'I'

WRITING PRACTICE
1. I am a_________ (boy/girl).
2. I drink water.
3. I like _________ (ducks/dinosaurs).

Teaching Tip: For younger learners at pre writing stage just have them practice writing 'I' more advanced learners can attempt whole sentences. Here's the Doodle pad I recommend for younger learners who can't yet grasp a pencil or crayon:



SHAPES
Shape of the day (Diamond)


Healthy Habit: Drink your water

RECAP: Can you name 3 'D' words that we learned today?

Here's an example of how this can be implemented:
