Lesson Category: A
Confused Y
Objectives: To teach and reinforce the (y) sound, and (y) as a vowel sound in words, following directions, art, music
Materials: song, drawing paper, pencils, colors, poster or chalkboard, chalk (Song located here ===> Music ) (Y) as a Vowel
Have the children sing the song several times. Tell them that it is good to memorize words with a (y) because sometimes (y) has the sound of a vowel in some words. The Vowels are (a,e,i,o,u, sometimes y). Give the children a sheet of drawing paper and a pencil. Demonstrate and tell them to fold the paper in half. Then fold it in half again. When they unfold the paper they will have four sections. Draw a diagram of the four sections on the chalkboard show how to write in each section. Write a number in the left corner of each section (1, 2, 3, 4). Write a (y) at the top of section one and draw a picture of a big (yam) for the (y) sound. Write an (e) at the top of section two and draw a big (bunny) for y as the (e) sound. Write an (i) at the top of section three and draw a big (fly) for y as the (i) sound. Write an (a) at the top of section four and draw a big (gray) cat for y as the (a) sound. Tell them to write the names under each picture and color them.

Confused Y SONG
(Y) is sometimes (i) like in my! (Y) is sometimes (e) like in key! (Y) is sometimes (a) like in may! And (y) is sometimes itself, like in yes! So (y) confuses itself! (Y) is sometimes (i) like in cry! (Y) is sometimes (e) like bunny! (Y) is sometimes (a) like in clay! And (y) is sometimes itself, like in your! So (y) confuses itself! The words with a (y) we must learn to know. Lots of words in your mind makes it grow and grow! (Y) may be confused, but you know the rule. So don’t let confused (y) confuse you!
