Parents are encouraged to take them home and post them where the child can see and practice every day. When we finish the entire alphabet they can make them into a book or put them into a binder. Group Time Activity Listening For L's Show children how to make a capital L with their thumb an forefinger. Explain that you will say several words, some that begin with the letter l and some that do not. Tell them to listen very carefully. When they hear a word that begins with the l sound, have them make an l with their hands and hold them up. Use L words such as lion, lake, lizard, lamb, log, lemon, ladder, leak, love, like, listen, and look.
