time and then we'll count our penguins just to make sure we have 15 penguins are you ready okay here we go let's start with number 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 15 and how many penguins have we been counting all week long 15 see if we still have 15 penguins will you count with me great here we go 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 we have 15 penguins okay my friends we have 15 penguins can you say this sentence with me we have 15 penguins let's say it again we have 15 penguins we sure do now it's time for us to practice writing letter P are you ready okay we'll do uppercase P lowercase P find something to write with like a marker or a pencil or crayon I'm going to get my marker I'll use my purple marker okay we are going to practice uppercase P first uppercase P and then we'll practice the lowercase P now look over here at our letter P actually I'll hold it up for you if you look the uppercase P is a little bit taller than the lowercase P the lower case P is a lower is lower than uppercase P but I'm going to show you how now let me put that back now let's go over to the board I'm going to remove some of these penguins because I need to make some room you find some room on your paper or your board wherever you're writing all right penguins thank you I think we have enough room now let's start with uppercase P watch me first looking eyes watch first and then we'll do it together so I find a space start at the top and I'm going to draw a straight line down go back to the top and draw a curved line around to the middle for uppercase P now let's try it together uppercase P here we go start at the top draw a straight line down go back to the top and draw a curved line to the middle for uppercase P let's try it one more time uppercase P start at the top draw a straight line down go back to the top and draw a curved line to the middle for uppercase P now let's try lowercase P but before we try the lowercase P I want you to draw lines for the lowercase P so we're going to pretend we have lines like in a notebook lines if you have a notebook great if you don't you can draw your lines one solid line dotted line in the middle and then a solid line at the bottom now look at lowercase P watch me first looking eyes I start my lowercase P under the dotted line start it right here at the line straight line down go back to the top of that line and draw a curved line around for lowercase P now again right under the dotted line draw a straight line down go back to the top of that line and draw a curved line around for lowercase P let's try it together one more time right under the dotted line draw a straight line down go back to the top of that line and draw a curved line around for lowercase P now look at this if I write uppercase P here look at the difference uppercase P is between the lines but the lowercase P the line goes below the last line it goes lower you see that uppercase P and lowercase P there you have it friends and so I want you to keep on practicing your uppercase P your lowercase P keep on practicing my friends because the more you practice the better you'll get uppercase P and lowercase P great writing okay my friends I'm going to put that down now guess what we completed our entire circle time board it's time for us to sing our circle time song are you ready great come on over to the desk friends let's go
