Activity: Printing the letter T for preschoolers

Look at the letter T. What does this letter look like? (On an umbrella, a fungus.) Fold the letter T out of your palms. Write the letter T in the air and once in a notebook carefully in the cells with a simple pencil or ballpoint pen.

In cases where a child is asked to write a whole line of a letter, syllable or word, the adult gives a spelling pattern at the beginning of the line.
If a preschooler has difficulties, then an adult can draw two reference lines, or put reference points that the child will connect with lines, or write the letters in their entirety, and the child will simply circle them in a different color. Calligraphy at this stage of training should not be required.

Continue the phrase

A horde of skies
Leaky sacks roam,
And it happens sometimes:
Water flows from the sacks.
Let's hide better
From the leaky ... (clouds).

I am the opposite of noise, knocking,
Without me, you will suffer at night.
I am for rest, for sleep,
I am called ... (silence).

Always be in order
Your school… (notebooks).

To have a place to write,
At school we need ... (notebook).

Be at the beginning of a word, period.
Let's read ... (twig).
If so, then ... (mesh).
How did the word twig
turn out to be a mesh?

Tale about the letter T

TV viewer Timka
Papa Tiger bought a TV set, and the tiger cub Timka seemed to be replaced.

- Timka! the tiger cubs cry to him in the morning.
- Let's go play.
- Leave me alone, - Timka grumbles, - they show such things here!

And on TV at that time they were showing how to cook a pumpkin properly. Then Timka watched how useful it is to eat cottage cheese and how harmful it is to eat cockroaches. Then the uncles in white slippers played tennis for three hours. Then the aunts invited everyone who wanted to work in the tram and trolleybus depot. Then the tractor pulled thick pipes and laid them in a trench. Then Timka got such a headache that he had to take pills.

Timka is lying on the couch with a thermometer, but the TV does not turn off. In the evening, when they began to show about calves (Timka already poorly understood that), on the TV suddenly something would crackle, how it would explode!

And it became dark, dark. Timka flew off the couch and to the phone:

- Hello, hello! Command fireman ... The TV exploded! What to do?
- Throw it out, - said Papa Tiger gloomily, - and flog you.

(G. Yudin)

Who wants to know a lot, he needs less sleep.
