Explain to the students that there are letters which start at the top ( cat’s head ) while ● others start in the middle ( cat’s neck ) . Some letters have a “tail” and extend below the line . Have students write the letters on the lines in their books . ● Challenge exercise : Have students practice writing the word “vet” on the line . ● Lesson extension ideas : Print out large blank V pages ( see suggested sources in Appendix C, TG page 371 ) and . 1 have students decorate them . These can be hung as a class gallery, taken home, or kept in folders for students to assemble into an alphabet book at the end of the year . Some ideas : Violet V’s : Have students draw violets on the V’s . Hang them up to ● create a violet garden in the classroom .
