it to form the letter shown.

Task/Discourse
The students form letters with their
playdough using the letter mats as a
template. As individual students complete
their letters, the teacher will go around to
each student and prompt him or her to
identify the name and sound of the letter
he/she built. The teacher will give the
child a second mat and the process will
continue.
Students will be observed during the
letter building process for their ability to
break down the parts of the letter and
use playdough to construct each letter
part.
Students will also be evaluated during the
brief discourse for their ability to repeat
the names and sounds of the letters they
build.
More advanced students will be evaluated
for their ability to identify the letter
names and sounds without prompting,
although mastery of this lesson only
requires that each student can repeat the
letter names and sounds after the
teacher.
If a child is unchallenged
by building the letters,
he/she could be allowed
to pick which letters
he/she would like to build,
to add interest to the
activity.
