Talking Points
- Letters are like secret codes: "Each letter is like a secret code that helps us write words."
- Practice makes perfect: "The more we practice writing letters, the better we will get at it."
- Letters have names: "Each letter has its own special name, like 'A', 'B', 'C'."
- Letters are friends: "Letters like to stick together to make words, just like friends stick together to have fun."
