Stepping Stones with the Letter ‘O’

Children are natural readers. They love to read and enjoy pretending to read when they haven’t learned reading yet. If we can help them develop a strong foundation, they can begin reading and writing with greater ease and confidence.

The letter ‘O’ is among the easier letters to recognize. This is because children can make an immediate association with the shape of a circle. The consistency of the letter ‘O’ in capital and lower-case is another factor that makes ‘O’ learning easy.

When it comes to letter sounds, the letter ‘O’ can get tricky. This is why we suggest that you begin slow and only introduce the short letter sound to them initially. More importantly, avoid practicing or learning the sound until the child has picked up all the consonant sounds first.

O Identification and Sound Games

You can use the letter ‘O’ as the first few letters if you aren’t using a particular order. This is only owing to the simplicity of its form. Remember that when you introduce letters like ‘Q’ that look pretty similar to ‘O’ in upper case, there could be some confusion.

Practicing the formation of ‘O’ can take a while. Kids may need more time to get the perfect circular shape. Don’t be too picky. They will get better as their motor skills develop. Use simple tracing games to help them improve. You can help make parallels with the shape and ask them what other objects look like this. This simple game can help cement the form in their memory better.

Bring in the letter sound only after the consonants. Start by asking your child to form the rounded shape using their lips. It also makes their lips loom exactly like the shape of the letter. How cool is that? Now help them sound the letter, and give them some simple words that look like the shape of the ‘O’ – like octopus and orange, to make a better association.
