ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Smile and Learn English The letter “o” with Ollie the Oyster- Educational video to learn the vowels – Phonics For Kids
Hello, friends! Today, we’re going to learn about the letter “O.” Can you say “O”? Great job! The letter “O” is special because it can make different sounds when it’s with other letters. Let’s practice saying “O” together!
Writing the letter “O” is super easy! You just make a big circle. Start at the top, go down and around, and back up. It looks like a basketball! Now, let’s try the small “o.” It’s just like the big “O,” but smaller, like a tennis ball. You can practice writing it at home with a pen and paper!
Let’s look at some words that have the letter “O.” The first word is “oyster.” Oysters live in the sea. Isn’t that cool? Another word is “October.” It starts with an “O” too!
Do you know what letter “olives” start with? That’s right, it’s “O”! Olives grow on trees, and they are yummy! Now, let’s try a tricky word: “always.” It sounds a little different, but it still has the letter “O.”
You’ve done a fantastic job learning about the letter “O”! There are many more letters to discover. You can watch more videos to learn about them and have fun with new adventures. Keep practicing and enjoy learning!
O Shape Hunt: Go on a hunt around your home or classroom to find objects that are shaped like the letter “O.” Look for things like a clock, a ring, or a donut. Once you find them, try drawing them on a piece of paper. How many “O” shapes can you find?
O Sound Game: With a grown-up, make a list of words that start with the letter “O” or have the “O” sound in them. Try saying each word out loud and listen carefully to the “O” sound. Can you think of a word that has a different “O” sound, like in “octopus” or “orange”? Practice saying these words and notice how your mouth makes the “O” shape!
O Word Art: Create a piece of art using words that start with the letter “O.” Draw or cut out pictures of things like “octopus,” “owl,” or “ocean” and glue them onto a big letter “O” you draw on a piece of paper. This will help you remember the words and their connection to the letter “O.”
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

[Music]
Hello, my friends! I’m Letter O. I’ve been asked to talk today.
Okay, my sound is easy. Repeat after me: “O.”
I can’t hear you.
Oh, okay! But wait—if I’m with a friend, together we make different sounds. Repeat after me.
[Music]
I know it’s strange. Again!
[Music]
Good job!
[Applause]
I’m so easy to write! Just make a circle like this. You start up here, make a semi-circle downwards and back up. Done!
I look like a basketball. Now let’s go with the small caps. It’s very similar but smaller. There you go! Here I look more like a tennis ball.
Try it at home with pen and paper; it’s very easy!
I’ll show you some words I’m in. The first one is “oyster.” Oysters live in the sea.
Boy, Ollie!

“October” starts with an O.
