Clever Cat

Today in class we wrapped up our quick review of the alphabet. Each letter has a character associated with it. Today we started learning more in depth about the sound each letter makes. Our character today was Clever Cat. The letter and sound is paired with picture coding to help the students remember the sound the letter makes.

Clever Cat lives in Letterland with all the other letters. She is a wiz at crossword puzzles, she likes to eat cake, cauliflower, custard and carrots. She's also really good at cleaning her car. Quite a cat if you ask me!

Here's a song that we learned today. It is sung to the tune of London Bridge is Falling Down.

Clever Cat says /c/ in words
/c/ in words, /c/ in words.
Clever Cat says /c/ in words
and she likes to cuddle closely.

And she makes another sound,
Another sound, another sound.
Clever Cat makes another sound,
Just you wait and see!

Clever Cat is a lower case 'c' but when he wants to say the name of someone, she takes a deep breath and grows big ( now she's upper case).

We also learned a way to remember how to write the letter 'c'. Start at her ear, curve around her face and tickle her under he chin! Ask your child to show you!

Our next character that we'll study is Annie Apple.
