Good morning! Happy Thursday! This morning I’m sharing show and tell letter G ideas with you all.

If you’ve got a preschooler who is doing letter of the week show and tell every week then you know that some weeks are harder than others so I’ve been sharing ideas for each letter in the hopes that it will help some of you out. I have updated the list and now we are up to 61 ideas!

General Show and tell tips:

Look through your kid’s stuffed animals and action figures. Sometimes you can find a character whose name starts with the letter that you need.
Look through your child’s books. You might find a book with a title that begins with the letter that you need
When all else fails have your kiddo take in an alphabet block with the letter on it or a an alphabet letter magnet.
My son once took in a picture that he colored from a coloring book. The picture was of something that started with the letter of the week and he loved showing off his artwork during share time.

And this won’t help you think of anything but this last tip will help keep you out of a bind-

My #1 Show and Tell Tip

Set a reminder on your phone for the night before show and tell.

That way you won’t forget and scramble to find something in your car while you wait in the drop off line for school. Yes, yes that did happen to me. Don’t be me. You’re better than that!

51 Groovy Show and Tell Letter G Ideas

Sharing is caring!

12 shares

I created all of my Show and Tell A-Z lists when I realized I was struggling to think of things for my preschooler to share each week. Here are all of my show and tell ideas for letter G – so you don’t have to scramble at the last minute too!

Tips for Finding Show and Tell Items

When I try to think of items for show and tell, I try to go through various categories of things we have in our house:

animals
books
food/drinks (real or pretend)
TV/movie characters
family member names (to send a picture)

If all else fails, I send a foam letter from our bathtub toys or a letter from a wooden alphabet puzzle.

How letters differ from sounds

Sound is elastic oscillations in any medium. We hear sounds and can create them, among other things, with the help of the speech apparatus (lips, tongue, etc.).

The letter is a symbol of the alphabet. It has an uppercase (excl., ь and ъ ) and a lowercase version. Often a letter is a graphic representation of the corresponding speech sound. We see and write letters. So that the pronunciation features do not affect the letter, spelling rules have been developed that determine which letters should be used in the word in question. The exact pronunciation of a word can be found in the phonetic transcription of the word, which is shown in square brackets in dictionaries. nine0268

Vowels and sounds

Vowel sounds (“voice” is the Old Slavonic “voice”) are sounds , [e] , in the creation of which the vocal cords are involved, and no barrier is erected on the path of the exhaled air. These sounds are sung: [aaaaaaa] , [iiiiii] . ..

Vowel sounds are indicated by letters A , E , Y , and , O , U , s , E , U , I . The letters e , e , o , and are called iotated . They denote two sounds, the first of which is [th'] , when

come first in a phonetic word

 barely [y'el'e] (3 letters, 4 sounds) more [y'isch'o] (3 letters, 4 sounds) hedgehog [y'osh] (2 letters, 3 sounds) Julia [y'ul'a] (3 letters, 4 sounds) apple [y'ablaka] (6 letters, 7 sounds) testicle [y'iich'ka] (5 letters, 6 sounds) nine0338

followed by vowels

 tarantula [pt'itsy'etʹ] (7 letters, 8 sounds) her [yi'oʹ] (2 letters, 4 sounds) cabin [kai'uta] (5 letters, 6 sounds) blue [s'in'iy'a] (5 letters, 6 sounds)

followed by - and -

 entry [vy'est] (5 letters, 5 sounds) rise [fall'om] (6 letters, 6 sounds) lew [l'y'u] (3 letters, 3 sounds) wings [wing'y'a] (6 letters, 6 sounds)

The letter and also denotes two sounds, the first of which is [th'] when

comes after

 nightingales [salav'y'iʹ] (7 letters, 7 sounds)

In a word, vowels highlighted during pronunciation are called stressed , and not highlighted - unstressed . Stressed sounds are most often both heard and written. To check what kind of letter you need to put in a word, you should choose a single-root word in which the desired unstressed sound will be stressed. nine0268

 running [b'igushch'y'] - running [b'ek] mountain [gara] - mountains [mountains]

Two words united by a single stress make one phonetic word.

 to the garden [fsat]

There are as many syllables in a word as there are vowels. The division of a word into syllables may not correspond to the division during transfer.

 e-yo (2 syllables) to-chka (2 syllables) about-de-va-tsya (4 syllables)

Consonants and sounds

nine0265 Consonant sounds are sounds that create a barrier in the way of exhaled air.

Voiced consonants are pronounced with voice, and voiceless consonants without it. The difference is easy to hear in paired consonants , for example, [p] - [b] , when pronouncing which the lips and tongue are in the same position.

Soft consonants are pronounced with the participation of the middle part of the tongue and are indicated in transcription with an apostrophe ', which occurs when the consonants nine0268

are always soft

 ai [ai'] (2 letters, 2 sounds) beam [beam '] (3 letters, 3 sounds) bream [l'eshch'] (3 letters, 3 sounds)

follow the letters E , Yo , and , U , I , b (Territory, always hard [g] , [c] , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , [c] and in loanwords)

 mehl [m'el'] (4 letters, 3 sounds) aunt [t'otʹa] (4 letters, 4 sounds) people [l'udʹi] (4 letters, 4 sounds) life [zhyz'n'] (5 letters, 4 sounds) circus [circus] (4 letters, 4 sounds) neck [sheya] (3 letters, 4 sounds) tempo [temp] (4 letters, 4 sounds)

followed by soft consonants (some cases)
```
 pancake [bl'in'ch'ik] 
```

The rest of the consonants will be mostly hard .

hissing consonants include the sounds [w] , [w] , [h '] , [w'] . Speech therapists rule their pronunciation penultimately: the tongue must be strong and flexible in order to resist exhaled air and be held against the palate in the shape of a cup. Vibrating 9's are always last in line.0272 [p] and [p'] .

Do schoolchildren need phonetics?

Without dividing into vowels, consonants, stressed, unstressed, of course, it is impossible. But transcription is a clear overkill.

Speech therapists are required to know the phonetic parsing of words and probably it can be useful to foreigners.

For students (from grade 1!), who have not yet mastered the rules of spelling, a rather in-depth study of phonetics only interferes, confuses and contributes to incorrect memorization of the spelling of words. It is “back” that the child will associate with the pronounced “run”. nine0268
