Daily Lesson Plan -- Lesson 16

Letter p

Subject: English | Class: Playgroup | Series: Skillford

Overview

This lesson introduces the letter "p" and its sound /p/. Learners look at a big picture of a red parrot eating a pear in a fruit tree, say simple "p" words aloud, and trace the letter "p". Everything is oral and playful. Children listen, point, say, move, colour and trace. They are not asked to read or write words or sentences.

Learning Objectives

  • Recognize the letter "p" and say its sound
  • Learn simple words that begin with the letter "p"
  • Trace the letter "p"

Key Vocabulary (from the textbook)

  • parrot
  • pear
  • panda
  • peach
  • pencil

Speech Bubble Sentence

  • "the parrot is eating delicious pear."

Day 1: Look and Say (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 44
  • Picture cards or flashcards: parrot, pear, panda, peach, pencil
  • A real pear, a real peach (if in season) and a pencil
  • A small piece of tissue paper

Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Sing a short alphabet song together
  • Hold up a large letter "p" card and say: "This is p. p says /p/."
  • Hold a small piece of tissue paper in front of your lips and say /p/. Watch it puff! Let children try with their hand in front of their mouth
  • Children say "/p/, /p/, /p/" with little puffs of air

Main Activity -- Picture Talk (15 minutes)

  • Open page 44. Let the children look at the picture quietly for a moment
  • Ask simple questions and accept one-word or pointing answers:
    • "Which bird can you see?" (parrot)
    • "What is the parrot eating?" (pear)
    • "What colour is the parrot?" (red)
  • Point to each cloud word and say it slowly, puffing the first sound: "p-p-parrot", "p-p-pear"
  • Children repeat each word twice
  • Read the speech bubble aloud: "The parrot is eating a delicious pear."
  • Children echo the sentence after you in two short parts:
    • "The parrot is eating"
    • "a delicious pear"
  • Act it out: children flap their arms like a parrot and pretend to bite a juicy pear

Main Activity -- Picture Cards (5 minutes)

  • Point to the three picture cards at the bottom of the page: panda, peach, pencil
  • Say each word; children repeat it
  • Play "Point to it": say a word and children point to the correct picture on the page
  • Show the real pencil, pear and peach. Children say each word as they touch it

Wrap-Up (5 minutes)

  • Hold up the "p" card. Children say the letter name and the sound
  • Quick round: "Tell me one p word." Help with the picture if needed
  • Clap and cheer for every answer

Differentiation

  • Support: Let quieter children point to the picture instead of saying the word, then say it together with them
  • Extension: Ask confident children to say the speech-bubble sentence on their own

Day 2: Trace and Write (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 45
  • Crayons (green and yellow for the pear), pencils

Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Show the picture cards from Day 1 and let children say the words: parrot, pear, panda, peach, pencil
  • Say the sound together with a puff: "/p/, /p/, /p/"

Main Activity -- Finger Tracing and Colouring (8 minutes)

  • Open page 45. Point to the big pink "p" in the cloud
  • Demonstrate the stroke in the air with a big arm: "Start at the top. Go straight down, past the line. Go back up, and make a round tummy to close."
  • Children draw the "p" in the air, then on the table, then on a friend's back
  • Following the Teacher's Note, let the learners run a finger along the big "p", then colour it in
  • Point to the Colour, Say and Trace icons and explain them with actions

Main Activity -- Trace and Write (12 minutes)

  • Hand out pencils. Say: "Pencil starts with /p/!" Check each child's grip
  • Point to the first black "p" on the top row. Say: "Look at this p. It has a long tail going down."
  • Show the small red dot at the top of the next "p": "We start at the red dot."
  • Work through the traced rows together, one line at a time, as the Teacher's Note says
  • Say the stroke aloud each time: "down, back up, round tummy"
  • For the two rows with only red dots, let children try their own "p" starting at each dot. Accept any attempt
  • Praise effort, not neatness

Wrap-Up (5 minutes)

  • Colour the pear picture at the top of the page. Ask: "What is this?" (pear) "What sound does pear start with?" (/p/)
  • Children say "p says /p/, pear!"

Differentiation

  • Support: Hold the child's hand gently over the pencil for the first few letters; use thick crayons if needed
  • Extension: Children make a "p" with a playdough snake and trace along it with a finger

Day 3: Little Activities (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 44 (activity boxes)
  • A real feather
  • A short video clip of a parrot pecking at its food
  • Orange and green playdough
  • A pot of pencils
  • Crayons

Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Sing: "p, p, p, what do you see? A parrot, a pear, and a panda for me!"
  • Children puff the /p/ sound onto their hands

Activity Rotation (20 minutes)

Choose the activities that suit your class and time. Follow the textbook boxes:

  • Little Explorers: Pass a real feather round the group. Let every learner stroke it, then blow it off an open palm. (Link: "The parrot has feathers!")
  • Little Innovators: Play a short clip of a parrot pecking at its food. The learners tap the table in time. Say "parrot" together
  • Little Builders: Roll orange playdough into a fat ball, press grooves down its sides and add a green stalk
  • Little Artists: Colour the parrot on the next page. Give the wings and each long tail feather a colour of its own. (Page 45 shows a pear, not a parrot, so give children a simple parrot outline, or colour the pear instead)
  • Little Thinkers: Count the pencils in the pot together, then say whether there are enough for one each

Wrap-Up (5 minutes)

  • Sit in a circle. Pass the feather around. Each child says "p" and the sound /p/
  • Finish with the matching pages in the Activity Book

Differentiation

  • Support: Count the pencils by touching each one with the child
  • Extension: Ask children to find something in the classroom that begins with /p/

Teaching Tips (from textbook)

  • Let the learners run a finger along "p", then colour it in
  • Hand out pencils and work through the traced rows together, one line at a time
  • When the writing is done, start the Little Artists art activity
  • Finish with the matching pages in the Activity Book

Safety Notes

  • Check for fruit allergies before tasting pear or peach
  • Check that no child is allergic to feathers
  • Keep playdough away from mouths; make sure pencils are carried point down
