Introducing the Letter I

Teacher Script: Introducing the Letter I
Invite your preschooler to explore the interesting sounds of the letter I with this guided teacher script! This printable worksheet helps young learners understand both the short I (/ĭ/ as in igloo) and long I (/ī/ as in ice cream) sounds. With simple examples, sound repetition, and fun word comparisons, students build early phonics awareness while staying engaged.

Includes a Phonics-Friendly Notes chart for educators to reinforce letter I rules and sound patterns — ideal for teaching the difference between short and long vowels.

Perfect for homeschool or classroom use!
