Materials:

- Flashcards with all 26 English letters

Procedure:

1. Greeting and Warm-up (5 minutes)

- Greet the students and create a positive, welcoming environment.

- Begin the lesson with a warm-up activity, such as a quick game of guessing words starting with different letters.

2. Introduction to English Letters (10 minutes)

- Introduce the concept of English letters by showing the flashcards one by one, naming each letter as you display it.

- Encourage the students to repeat the letter sounds after you and ask if anyone knows words that start with each letter.

3. Teaching letter sounds (15 minutes)

- Write a consonant letter on the board and pronounce the letter sound.

- Give examples of words that start with that letter sound (e.g. "B" - "ball," "book," "box").

- Repeat the process for a few more consonant letters.

- Then, introduce some vowel letters and their sounds (e.g. "A" - "apple," "ant," "cat").

- Play the audio recordings of letter sounds for the students to practice listening and repeating.

4. Letter Tracing Practice (15 minutes)

- Distribute the letter tracing worksheet to each student.

- Demonstrate how to properly trace a letter on the board, using arrows to indicate the stroke direction.

- Guide the students to start tracing and writing each letter on their worksheet, providing individual assistance as needed.

- Monitor the students' progress and provide feedback on their letter formation.

5. Letter Recognition Game (10 minutes)

- Play a fun letter recognition game, such as "Letter Bingo" or "Letter Charades." Provide the students with a variety of words or flashcards, and they must identify the letter sound and find the corresponding letter on their bingo card or act it out.

6. Consolidation and Wrap-up (5 minutes)

- Review the letters learned in the lesson, asking the students to name the letters and their corresponding sounds.

- Assign the students a short homework task, such as finding and writing down three words that start with a specific letter.

- Thank the students for their participation and summarize the key points of the lesson.
