I'm going to go over to our drawing and writing board. I'm going to get our writing and drawing board ready, but first I have to clean it up and get it ready so that we can practice. While I do that, you get your paper, notebook, or whatever you need to practice writing. And if you're just using your finger, that's okay too. Okay, I'll meet you there. Okay, it's time to practice writing the letter B. We'll do uppercase first and then we'll practice the lowercase. I'm going to use my red marker today, the red marker. Now, before we start, I wanted to show you something first. So watch me first, okay? Watch me first. Because both letter B, the uppercase B and lowercase letter B, they both have straight lines and they also have curved lines. So letter B, uppercase, has a straight line going down, but it also has curved lines. And the curved lines go like this. Start at the top and it curves to the middle and then it curves to the bottom, just like that. And the letter B, lowercase, has a straight line going down, down, and it only has one curve, one curve, like this. Go to the middle and you curve to the bottom. That's our lowercase B. So first we're going to practice uppercase B. So everyone get ready. Let's start at the top. Here we go. Start at the top. We go down, go back to the top, curve to the middle, curve to the bottom. Great, let's try it again. Start at the top, go down, go back to the top, curve to the middle, curve to the bottom. Great, and if you're practicing using your pointer finger, I want you practicing up in the air, line down, go back to the top, curve to the middle, and curve to the bottom. You can practice like that. Okay, let's keep going, everyone. I'm going to do another one over here. Here we go. Start at the top, line down, go back to the top, curve to the middle, and curve to the bottom. Great, let's keep going. Start at the top, line down, go back to the top, curve to the middle, curve to the bottom. Let's keep going. Start at the top, line down, go back to the top, Curve to the middle, curve to the bottom. Great! Let's keep going. Start at the top, line down, go back to the top. Curve to the middle, curve to the bottom. One more. Start at the top, line down, go back to the top. Curve to the middle, and curve to the bottom. Great! Letter B, uppercase B. You did it. You just keep on practicing. Now I'm going to clean my board, so now we can practice letter B lowercase. Lowercase B. Okay? You can keep practicing while I clean the board. Now we're ready for our lowercase B. Watch me first. Lowercase B. Start at the top, go down, go to the middle of the line, the middle, and curve to the bottom. That's our lowercase B. Now your turn. Let's practice. Start at the top, line down, go to the middle, curve to the bottom. Great! Let's keep practicing. Start at the top, line down, go to the middle, curve to the bottom. Let's keep going. Start at the top, line down, go to the middle, and curve to the bottom. Let's keep going. Start at the top, line down, go to the middle, and curve to the bottom. Let's go. Two more. Here we go. Start at the top, line down, go to the middle, curve to the bottom. I'm going to do one more here. You do one more as well. Start at the top, line down, go to the middle, and curve to the bottom. Lowercase B. You did it! Great! Just keep on practicing. The more you practice, the better you'll get. And your letter B, both the uppercase and the lowercase, will continue to get better. Keep on practicing. Now it's time for our circle time song. So I'm going to clean the board, and I'm going to put a very special song there, and you get ready to meet me there for our circle time song. See you soon! Now it's time to sing our circle time song. Today we're going to sing the letter B song. Remember, letter B says b-b-b. Okay? And when we get to the part that says, letter B is all around, you can go like this for round. Are you ready?
