ABC Storytime: The Letter Q

Hi friends, will you sing an Alphabet Song with me?

It's time for the Letter of the Day:

(tune is the Farmer and the Dell)

The letter of the day,

Hip, hip, hip-hooray,

Today is letter "Q"!

Can you draw a big letter Q in the air?

Stand up, point your magic finger out in front of you. Now draw roundy, roundy O. Slant right.

*Letter Q practice using the American Sign Language Alphabet can be found here.

Q says "Qwah"

And Q says "qwah"

Every letter makes a sound

Q says "qwah"

Can you think of words that start with the letter Q?

Q is for Queen. Do you recognize any of these queens:
