Introducing the sound "e" using visuals such as posters and flashcards. An action is demonstrated to help children remember the sound, pretending to crack an egg while saying "eh, eh, eh". A song is also used to build confidence with the sound. Writing worksheets are provided to practice forming capital and lowercase E, first with a finger then with a pencil. Reinforcing activities identify words beginning with E and use technology for whole group work plus individual worksheets.
