Learning About the Letter O

Last week, students in CSSI learned about the letter O. Tasks focused on the letter O were incorporated into our daily activities throughout the week. 

Students first made an octopus craft to put into their letter portfolios. This task required students to listen to verbal instructions and use a visual example in order to complete their octopus craft. 




Using the program "Handwriting Without Tears", students explored using shapes to make the letter O. In addition, they used their fingers to trace and feel the letter O. 




During our daily music and circle times, we would explore songs from Super Simple Songs and Bounce Patrol that reinforced the letter O.

Students continued to practice letter formation and identifying "o words" using their understanding of letter sounds. In addition, some students continued to practice labelling their pictures using visual examples. 



We had alot of fun learning about the letter O!
