Daily Lesson Plan -- Lesson 25

Letter Yy

Subject: English | Class: Playgroup | Series: Leeds

Overview

This lesson introduces the letter "Yy". Learners look at a beach picture on page 27 with a white yacht on the sea, a furry yak, two eggs with yellow yolks in a pan and an orange yo-yo. They say the four words, chant the letter box at the top of the page, and learn the rhyme line "y / y / yak lives on high land". On the second day they trace "Y" and "y" in the air, on the board and with a pencil. All talk is oral and playful. Learners are not expected to read or write words.

Learning Outcomes

  • Recognise the capital letter "Y" and the small letter "y"
  • Say the sound /y/
  • Name the pictures on page 27: yacht, yolk, yo-yo, yak
  • Say the chant and the rhyme line from the letter box
  • Trace "Y" and "y" with the correct stroke

Key Vocabulary

  • yacht
  • yolk
  • yo-yo
  • yak

Chant (from textbook)

  • "y / y / yacht"
  • "y / y / yolk"
  • "y / y / yo-yo"
  • "y / y / yak lives on high land"

Day 1: Look and Say (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 27
  • Picture cards (or the book pictures) of yacht, yolk, yo-yo, yak
  • A real yo-yo, if you have one
  • A boiled egg cut in half, to show the yolk
  • Letter cards Y and y

Circle Time Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Sit the learners in a circle and sing a hello song together
  • Hold up the letter cards "Y" and "y". Say: "Big Y, small y"
  • Say the sound /y/: smile wide and say "y" with your tongue pushed up
  • Ask learners to smile and say /y/ with you three times

Little Explorers (5 minutes)

  • Show the boiled egg cut in half
  • Point to the yellow middle and say: "This is the yolk"
  • Ask each learner: "What colour is the yolk?" and accept "yellow"
  • Say together: "yolk, /y/ /y/ yolk"

Look and Say (8 minutes)

  • Open page 27 and point to the big red "Yy"
  • Point to the yacht and say "yacht". Learners repeat
  • Point to the eggs in the pan and say "yolk". Learners repeat
  • Point to the yo-yo and say "yo-yo". Learners repeat
  • Point to the yak and say "yak". Learners repeat
  • Play "Point to it": say a word, learners point to the right picture in their book

Chant Time (6 minutes)

  • Point to the letter box at the top of the page
  • Say each line slowly and clap on each "y":
    • "y / y / yacht"
    • "y / y / yolk"
    • "y / y / yo-yo"
  • Learners echo each line twice
  • Say the rhyme line together: "y / y / yak lives on high land". Learners point up high on the word "high"

Wrap-Up (6 minutes)

  • If you have a yo-yo, make it go up and down while learners say "yo-yo"
  • Learners move their hands up and down like a yo-yo
  • Ask: "What does yak start with?" Learners say /y/

Differentiation

  • Support: Let shy learners point to pictures instead of saying words; say the word with them
  • Extension: Ask confident learners to say the whole chant on their own

Day 2: Trace and Write (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 27
  • Board and marker
  • Pencils and plain paper with dotted "Y" and "y" rows
  • Crayons (orange, yellow)

Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Show page 27 again. Point and say: yacht, yolk, yo-yo, yak
  • Say the chant together, clapping on each "y"
  • Say the rhyme line: "y / y / yak lives on high land"

Little Thinkers (4 minutes)

  • Ask: "Which picture goes on the water?" Learners point to the yacht
  • Ask: "Which picture is an animal?" Learners point to the yak
  • Ask: "Which picture goes up and down?" Learners point to the yo-yo

Air and Board Tracing (6 minutes)

  • Draw a big "Y" in the air: slant down to the middle from the left, slant down to the middle from the right, then go straight down
  • Draw a small "y": a short slant down to the middle, then a long slant from the top right going down below the line, like a tail
  • Learners copy you three times
  • Invite learners to trace a big "Y" on the board with a finger

Trace and Write (8 minutes)

  • Hand out pencils and check the grip (pinch the pencil, rest it on the middle finger)
  • Row 1: trace the dotted capital "Y", starting at the top
  • Row 2: trace the dotted small "y", starting at the top
  • Praise every try: "Lovely y with a long tail!"

Colour Time (6 minutes)

  • Give each learner a sheet with a big yo-yo outline
  • Learners colour the yo-yo orange like the one on page 27
  • As they work, ask: "What is this?" Learners say "yo-yo"

Wrap-Up (1 minute)

  • Draw "y" in the air one last time and say /y/
  • Say the rhyme line one more time, pointing up high

Differentiation

  • Support: Use a thick crayon for tracing; hold the learner's hand for the first row
  • Extension: Let confident learners trace a big "Y" on the board with a marker

Teaching Tips

  • Small "y" has a tail that goes below the line; show this clearly on the board
  • Say "yolk" slowly so learners hear the /y/ at the start
  • Keep the chant rhythm the same every day so learners can join in quickly
