Seven Little Letters
Sing to the tune of "Five Little Ducks." Seven little letters went out one day (Hold up seven fingers.)
Over the hills and far away. (Move hand up and down.)
When the teacher called /m/, /m/, /m/, /m/, (Cup hands around mouth as
Only the letter "M" came back. you make the /m/ sound.)
Continue with /t/, /f/, /g/, /d/, /s/, /p/
Activities: Place magnetic letters on the overhead or on a cookie sheet and remove as you sing the song. Sing a similar song for the vowels. "Five little vowels went out one day"
Cut file folders in half. Punch 2 holes in the top and tie together with a 30" piece of string as shown. Print the uppercase letter on one side and the lowercase letter on the other side. Chose seven children to wear these like sandwich boards. Have the "seven letters" hold hands and skip in a circle. When you call their sound, they come to you.
