Subject: English | Class: Playgroup | Series: Leeds

---

Hello, little friends! Welcome to our English lesson. Today we are going to meet a new letter. It is the letter m!

Look at this big red letter. This is big M, and this is small m. Can you say it with me? m!

The letter m makes a sound. It says m, m, m. Close your lips and hum, like when you eat something yummy. Mmm! Say it with me. m, m, m. Very good!

Now look at the picture. Here is a big, juicy mango. It is orange and yellow with a green leaf. Mmm, yummy! Say mango. Mango! Mango starts with m. m, m, mango.

Can you see the cow behind the fence? The cow gives us milk. Look, there is milk in a big can, milk in a bucket and milk in a bottle. Splash! Say milk. Milk! m, m, milk.

Look at the ground. There is a colourful mat. We can sit on a mat. Say mat. Mat! m, m, mat.

And who is up in the tree? It is a monkey! The monkey is holding the branch and waving at us. Hello, monkey! Say monkey. Monkey! m, m, monkey.

Let us say all our m words together. Mango. Milk. Mat. Monkey. Great job!

Now let us say our chant. Clap with me. m, m, mango. m, m, milk. m, m, mat. Wonderful!

Here is a little rhyme about the monkey. Listen. m, m, monkey hangs in the tree. Say it with me. m, m, monkey hangs in the tree. Can you hold up one arm and wave like the monkey?

Let us play a game. When I say milk, take a sip and say mmm. Milk! Mmm. When I say mat, pat the floor. Mat! Pat, pat. When I say monkey, wave like the monkey. Monkey! Well done!

Now it is time to draw the letter m. Hold up your finger. Let us draw a big M in the air. Go down. Go back up. Slant down to the middle. Slant up again. Now go down. Big M!

Now let us draw a small m. Start at the top. Go down a short line. Go back up. Make a hump, over and down. Make another hump, over and down. Two humps! Small m!

One more time, nice and slow. Down, up, hump, hump. Well done!

Let us remember what we learned today. The letter m says m, m, m.

Mango starts with m. Milk starts with m. Mat and monkey start with m too.

m, m, monkey hangs in the tree.

You did a super job today, little friends! Keep saying m, m, m. See you next time! Bye-bye!
