Daily Lesson Plan -- Lesson 10
Letter Jj
Subject: English | Class: Nursery | Series: Skillford
Overview
This lesson introduces the letter "Jj". Learners look at the big capital "J" and small "j", say the sound /j/, and meet a girl in a jacket who puts a jug of juice on a jeep. They name the pictures jet and joker. On the second day they trace and write "Jj", capital first and then small, circle the picture that begins with /j/, and colour the jug. Most talk is oral and playful; writing is limited to the tracing rows.

Day 1: Look and Say (30 minutes)
Materials
- Textbook page 28
- Picture cards (or the book pictures) of jet, joker, jacket, jug, juice, jeep
- A big picture of a jungle
- A tablet or screen for a short clip of a jet taking off
- Lolly sticks and glue
Circle Time Warm-Up (5 minutes)
- Sit the learners in a circle and sing a hello song together
- Draw a big "J" in the air: a short line across the top, then down and curve round to the left at the bottom
- Say the sound /j/ as in jug. Learners say /j/ /j/ with you three times
- Jump on the spot each time you say /j/
Meet the Letter (4 minutes)
- Open page 28 and point to the big white "J" and yellow "j"
- Say: "This is big J. This is small j." Learners point and repeat
- Show that small "j" has a tail that goes below the line, and a dot on top
Look and Say (8 minutes)
- Point to the girl's jacket: "jacket". Learners repeat
- Point to the jug: "jug". Point to the juice inside it: "juice"
- Point to the car: "jeep". Learners repeat each word twice
- Read the sentence in the red box aloud: "The girl wearing a jacket placed a jug full of juice on the jeep." Learners echo it in short parts
- Point to the two picture boxes and say each word; learners repeat twice:
- jet
- joker
- Play "Point to it": say a word, learners point to the right picture
Science: Jungle Animals (4 minutes)
- Pin up a big picture of a jungle
- Let each learner point to one animal and name it
- Say together: "jungle, /j/ /j/ jungle"
Technology: Jet Clip (4 minutes)
- Play a short clip of a jet taking off
- Ask learners what they can hear before they can see it
- Learners stretch out their arms and fly like a jet, saying "jet"
Engineering: Lolly Stick J (4 minutes)
- Give out lolly sticks and glue
- Use them to make a "J": one long stick down, one short stick across the top, and one short curved stick at the bottom
- Learners trace their stick "J" with a finger and say /j/
Wrap-Up (1 minute)
- Ask: "What did the girl put on the jeep?" Learners say "a jug of juice"
- Draw "J" in the air one last time
Differentiation
- Support: Let shy learners point to pictures instead of saying words; say the word with them
- Extension: Ask confident learners to name three /j/ things without help
Day 2: Trace and Write (30 minutes)
Materials
- Textbook pages 28-29
- Pencils and crayons
- Number cards (1 to 5)
Warm-Up (4 minutes)
- Show page 28 again. Point and say: jet, joker, jacket, jug, juice, jeep
- Say the sentence together: "The girl wearing a jacket placed a jug full of juice on the jeep."
Maths: Jump and Count (4 minutes)
- Hold up a card with a number on it
- Learners jump that many times, counting out loud as they go
- Say: "jump, /j/ /j/ jump"
Finger Tracing (3 minutes)
- Open page 29 and point to the big outlined "Jj"
- Show the strokes for capital "J": start at the top, draw a short line across, then go down from the middle of it and curve round to the left at the bottom
- Show the strokes for small "j": start at the middle line, go down below the line and curve to the left, then add the dot on top
- Learners run a finger over the big "J" and then the big "j"
Trace and Write (8 minutes)
- Hand out pencils and check the pinch grip
- Point to the first "Jj" in row 1 and model it on the board
- Row 1: trace the dotted "Jj" pairs, capital first, then small
- Row 2: trace the dotted pairs again, slowly
- Rows 3 and 4 (empty lines): learners write "Jj" on their own, with your hand over theirs if needed
- Remind learners that the tail of small "j" goes below the line
Circle the /j/ Picture (5 minutes)
- Read the instruction aloud: "Circle the pictures that begin with the sound /j/."
- Point to each picture and name it together: ice cream, hut, ball, jeep
- Ask for each one: "Does it start with /j/?"
- Learners circle the jeep. Only the jeep begins with /j/
Arts: Colour the Jug (5 minutes)
- Point to the jug at the top of page 29
- Learners colour the jug. Ask: "What can we put in a jug?" (juice, water, milk)
Wrap-Up (1 minute)
- Ask: "What sound does jug start with?" Learners say /j/
- Draw "Jj" in the air one last time
Differentiation
- Support: Hold the learner's hand for the first row; say "jeep, /j/" as you circle it together
- Extension: Ask confident learners to say what each of the other three pictures starts with
Teaching Tips (from textbook)
- Guide learners to trace and write Jj, starting with a capital letter first, followed by a small letter
- In the circle activity only the jeep begins with /j/, even though the instruction says "pictures"
