Recognize and name all upper and lower cases of the alphabet.
BEHAVIOR GOALS (IF NEEDED) Use attention getter: 1,2,3 Eyes on Me.
OBJECTIVES Students will be able to identify upper and lowercase letters they are shown
visually with 90% accuracy.
GROUP GOAL Actively participate in identifying upper and lowercase letters as called upon.
INTRODUCTION 1. Write a letter on the board, the upper and lowercase versions of
it, and point out that that we have two kinds of letters: upper and lowercase.

letters.
2. Have the students shut their eyes/put their heads down, and lay out all
of the heart letters on the floor.
3. Give one bowl to Ms. Gould or sub, and hold the other bowl. The bigger
bowl will represent where the uppercase letters will go, and the smaller bowl
will represent where the lowercase letters will go.
4. Have the students go and grab the heart letters, one letter at a time,
and then put in the correct bowl where the letter goes, depending on if it is
uppercase or lowercase, telling the teacher what the letter is..
PRACTICE 1. Have the students stand in a line, and give each student a heart letter
when it is there turn.
2. Have the students tell you the letter they are given, and then go and
place it on the ABC rug where its matching letter is.

INTRODUCTION Write the letter B on the board. Ask the students what
letter it is, and what sound it makes. Then say we are
going to talk about letter sounds today.
PRACTICE 1. Say the letter B and make sure all the students
mark the square with B if they have it.
2. Ask the students what sound the letter B makes,
and have them all say the sound together.
3. Repeat the same process for the letters R, F, H, G,
M, N, B, P, D, S, V, W, Y, Z, C, L, J, and K, or as
many letters as possible.
4. Make sure the students all say the sounds of the

PROGRESS MONITORING Pay attention to which letter sounds the students
need to focus on the most, and make note of them
to report back to _____(teacher).
Even if the students dont know the letter sounds

SPECIAL EDUCATION LESSON PLAN: The Hungry Mouse
Teacher Date
General Education CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RF.K.1.D.
Standard Recognize and name all upper- and lowercase letters of
the alphabet.
Behavior Goals Useattention getter: 1,2,3 Eyes one Me
Prompt and redirect the students as needed to
keep them on task and following directions
Time Allotted 30 minutes
Group Goal Actively participate in identifying names of numbers and
quantities.
Objective Students will be able to identify letter names correctly in 4
out of 5 trials.
Materials Hungry mouse picture, eraser, dry erase markers, tape
(Tape the hungry mouse picture on the eraser).
Introduction 1. Have the students sit in a circle on the ABC rug.
2. Say: An animal is going to help us learn today!
Lets go around the circle and guess one animal
each.
3. Going around the circle, let each student guess
one animal. Option: Go around the circle again
and let the students have another guess.
4. If one of the students guesses a mouse, go
ahead and start the lesson saying a mouse is
going to help us to learn, and if it is not
guessed after going around the circle, say that
a mouse is going to help us learn today after all
the guesses have been made.
Development 1. Hold up the mouse eraser and show all the
students.
2. Using the popsicle sticks, take turns choosing
the students to come up and feed the hungry
mouse. Say the hungry mouse is fed by
erasing the board.
3. Let the students feed the hungry mouse by
writing a letter on the board, and the student
with the mouse identifying that letter and
then erasing it, feeding the mouse, also
having the students identify if it is an

Practice 1. Continue picking students from the can of
popsicle sticks to feed the hungry mouse and
identify letter names and types (uppercase or
lowercase).
2. Repeat the same process, only write two or
three letters on the board for the students to
identify instead of just one (leave enough
space that the letters dont make a word).
3. Continue to have the students identify the
letter names, and their types.
4. If the students dont know a letter, have them
ask one of their friends to help them.
Progress Monitoring Throughout the lesson of writing letters on the board, if a
certain letter is not recognized with as quick of
automaticity, then repeat that letter again and again as
needed. Watch for letters which are either incorrectly
identified or take longer to identify to focus on for the rest
of the lesson and to report to the classroom teacher,
