Daily Lesson Plan -- Lesson 22
Letter Vv
Subject: English | Class: Nursery | Series: Skillford
Overview
This lesson introduces the letter "Vv". Learners look at the big capital "V" and small "v", say the sound /v/, and look at a garden picture of a vulture watering the flowers in a vase. They name the labelled pictures, van and vest, and find more /v/ things in the scene: the vulture and the vase. On the second day they trace and write "Vv", capital first, then small, tick the pictures that begin with /v/, and colour the van. All talk is oral and playful.
Learning Outcomes (from textbook)
- Point to 'Vv' and say the sound /v/.
- Name three things that begin with the sound /v/.
- Trace and write 'Vv', capital first, then small.
Key Vocabulary
- van
- vest
- vulture
- vase
- vegetables
- violin (page 62)
Speech-Bubble Sentence
- "The vulture is watering the flowers in the vase."
Day 1: Look and Say (30 minutes)
Materials
- Textbook page 61
- A basket of real vegetables (for example a carrot, a potato, a tomato, a cucumber, a leaf of spinach)
- Picture cards (or the book pictures) of van, vest, vulture, vase
- Playdough
- A tablet or screen for a short clip of a delivery van being loaded
Circle Time Warm-Up (5 minutes)
- Sit the learners in a circle and sing a hello song together
- Draw a big "V" in the air with your finger: down, up. Learners copy you
- Say the sound /v/: rest your top teeth on your bottom lip and buzz
- Learners put a finger on their bottom lip and feel the buzz: /v/ /v/ /v/
Meet the Letter (4 minutes)
- Open page 61 and point to the big "Vv"
- Say: "This is big V. This is small v." Learners point and repeat
- Show that both letters have the same shape: one is big, one is small
Look and Say (8 minutes)
- Point to the van and say "van". Learners repeat
- Point to the vest and say "vest". Learners repeat
- Point to the big picture. Ask: "Who is this?" Say "vulture". Learners repeat
- Point to the vase full of flowers and say "vase". Learners repeat
- Read the sentence in the red box: "The vulture is watering the flowers in the vase." Learners echo it
- Ask: "What is the vulture holding?" (a watering can)
- Play "Point to it": say a /v/ word, learners point to it in the book
Little Explorers (5 minutes)
- Put the real vegetables on the table
- Let learners hold each one and say "hard" or "soft"
- Sort them into two groups together: a hard pile and a soft pile
- Say: "vegetables, /v/ /v/ vegetables"
Little Innovators (4 minutes)
- Play a short clip of a delivery van being loaded
- Ask: "What can a van carry that a car cannot?" Accept answers such as boxes, a big table, lots of bags
- Say together: "van, /v/ /v/ van"
Little Builders (3 minutes)
- Give out playdough and make a vase together: a wide foot, a narrow waist and a lip that flares out
- Learners hold up their vase and say "vase"
Wrap-Up (1 minute)
- Ask: "What sound does van start with?" Learners say /v/
- Draw "V" in the air one more time
Differentiation
- Support: Let shy learners point to pictures instead of saying words; say the word with them
- Extension: Ask confident learners to find all four /v/ things on the page without help
Day 2: Trace and Write (30 minutes)
Materials
- Textbook pages 61-62
- Pencils
- Crayons
- A handful of toy vehicles for each learner (cars, vans, buses, lorries)
Warm-Up (4 minutes)
- Show page 61 again. Point and say: van, vest, vulture, vase
- Say the sentence together: "The vulture is watering the flowers in the vase."
- Buzz the /v/ sound together three times
Little Thinkers (5 minutes)
- Give each learner a handful of toy vehicles
- Count them together, one by one
- Pair two learners and ask: "Who has more? Who has fewer?"
- Find a van among the toys if there is one and say "van, /v/"
Finger Tracing (4 minutes)
- Open page 62 and point to the big outline "Vv"
- Show the stroke for capital "V": start at the top on the left, slant down to the bottom, then slant back up to the top on the right
- Small "v" is made the same way, but it is short
- Learners run a finger over the big "V", then the small "v"
Trace and Write (8 minutes)
- Hand out pencils and check the grip
- Row 1: point to the black "Vv" at the start. Trace the dotted pairs, capital "V" first, then small "v"
- Row 2: trace the dotted pairs on your own, saying "down, up" for each letter
- Bottom row: confident learners write "Vv" on their own, capital first
- Praise every try: "Lovely sharp point!"
Tick the /v/ Pictures (4 minutes)
- Point to the pictures at the bottom of page 62 one by one and name them: vase, van, umbrella, violin
- Ask: "Does it begin with /v/?" Learners tick the box for each /v/ picture
- Answers: vase, van and violin are ticked. Umbrella is not ticked: it begins with /u/
Little Artists (4 minutes)
- Colour the van at the top of page 62
- As they work, ask: "What is this?" Learners say "van"
Wrap-Up (1 minute)
- Say /v/ one last time and draw "V" and "v" in the air
Differentiation
- Support: Hold the learner's hand for the first two pairs; use a thick crayon
- Extension: Ask learners to think of one more /v/ thing they know
Teaching Tips (from textbook)
- Guide learners to trace and write Vv, starting with a capital letter first, followed by a small letter.
