INTRODUCTION: I explained that on Monday, it was the birthday of an author we know that wrote many books for children. I held up a picture of Dr. Seuss, and I asked if anyone recognized him. None of the children did. I explained that even though Dr. Seuss has passed away, we still celebrate Dr. Seuss Day in March.
Today we are doing the letter Dd for doctor.

Held up D and d
Talked about sound of Dd
Talked about things that start with Dd
Make a lowercase d in the air
Put the alphabet chart on the floor. Let each child take the pointer and point to the letter Dd.

I gave each parent a copy of the words to the songs that have to do with the theme. I told the children to find a letter Dd in the words and point to out to their parent.

Craft Time:
I modeled the rainbow writing page for letter Dd, the Dd dot page, and the craft before the children starting working on them. Before starting the craft, the children write the given letter using 3 different colors of crayons. I have attached a link to the free rainbow writing letters I used. Completing the dot page is optional.You can find free rainbow writing letters here. Since they are free, they lack a dot for where to start. print one off, add the dots with a black marker, and then make copies of that one. You can find the dot pages here.
Click here for a link for letter formation prompts for capital and lowercase letters. Children need to spend more time working on the lowercase letters than on the capital letters.
