ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Smile and Learn English Learn the letter “E” with Elephant Edd – Learning the Alphabet – Phonics For Kids
Hi everyone! Today, we’re going to have fun learning about the letter “E.” I’m the letter “E,” and I’m a special letter called a vowel. You might have seen me in lots of words!
Let’s learn how to say my name. Sometimes I sound like “E,” and other times I sound like “eh.” Let’s try saying “E” together. Ready? “E!” Great job! Now, let’s say it a little louder. “E!” Excellent!
Now, let’s learn how to write me! First, we’ll make a big capital “E.” It’s like drawing a fork! We start with a long line going up and down. Then, we add three little lines across. One at the top, one in the middle, and one at the bottom. You did it!
Next, let’s try the small lowercase “e.” It’s a little tricky, but we can do it! Start with a tiny line, then make a circle around. It looks a bit like a cat’s face. Try it with a pencil and paper!
Let’s find some words that start with “E.” How about “egg”? Be careful with those eggs! Another word is “engine.” Start the engines!
What about “elbow”? Can you say “elbow”? Yes, it starts with “E.” Can you touch your elbow?
Let’s try some more words. These sound a little different. Listen carefully: “feet,” “sheep,” “sleep.” You did great!
Now, let’s have some fun singing! Have you met the elephant? The elephant went down the shed. He went too fast and bumped his head—poor little head!
Thanks for learning with me today! If you want to learn more, you can watch more videos and have fun with new adventures!
Letter “E” Scavenger Hunt: Go on a scavenger hunt around your home or classroom to find objects that start with the letter “E.” Can you find an egg, an envelope, or an eraser? Make a list or draw pictures of the items you find. Share your discoveries with a friend or family member!
Sound Matching Game: Listen carefully to different sounds around you. Can you hear the “E” sound in words like “engine” or “elbow”? Try to find other words that have the “E” sound. You can also play a matching game by drawing pictures of objects that start with “E” and matching them with their names.
Creative “E” Art: Use your imagination to create a piece of art featuring the letter “E.” You can draw an elephant, make a collage of “E” words, or even create a big letter “E” using craft materials like sticks, buttons, or yarn. Display your artwork and explain what you’ve made to your classmates or family.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript:

Hi everyone! Today I’m excited to present the letter “E.” That’s me, the letter “E.” I’m the second vowel, and I’m sure you’ve seen me around.
Okay, let’s learn how to pronounce me. I’m a bit tricky because I have two different ways I like to be read. Let’s try this way first. Repeat after me: “E.”
[Music]
Louder! Excellent! Now, if I’m with a friend, together we will sound like this: “E.” Louder! Excellent!
You can also write with me whenever you like. I’ll show you. Let’s start with the capital letter. It’s just four little lines: one longer vertical line, another horizontal line up here, one in the center, and the last one down here. Well done!
Oh, it looks like a fork!
Okay, now let’s try the lowercase letter. This is a little harder, but we’ll get it. You’ll see! We draw a short little line over here, and then we start our circle. Careful! If you look closely, it looks like a cat. Try writing it with a pen and paper; it’s easy!
Let’s look at some words. I’m in “egg.” Start with the letter “E.” Careful with those eggs! “Engine” also starts with the letter “E.” Start the engines!
What about “elbow”? What’s the first letter in the word “elbow”? “E.” Yes, well done! Can you lick your elbow?
Now let’s try a little harder. Do you know how to say these words? Careful, they sound different. Let me help you: “feet,” “sheep,” “sleep.” Excellent!
Okay, that’s enough work for today. What do you say to a little singing?
Have you met the elephant?
[Applause]
The elephant went down the shed. He went too fast and bumped his head—poor little head!
