Introducing the Letter A

Teacher Script: Introducing the Letter A

This printable teacher script is the perfect companion for introducing the letter A to preschoolers in a fun and engaging way! With simple language and built-in prompts, this page helps guide parents, teachers, or homeschoolers through explaining both the short and long A sounds. Children will explore words that begin with A, practice phonics, and start recognizing the two main sounds that A can make.

Includes a phonics cheat sheet for educators, making it easy to understand when and where each sound appears in everyday words. Great for circle time, literacy centers, or one-on-one instruction.

Bonus idea: Let students color the letter A and draw pictures of A-words after reading!
