The snake slipped away and Dave felt sad,
Dave felt sad,
Dave felt sad,
The snake slipped away and Dave felt sad.  s a d spells sad.

Play some games that use the rhyming words for sad: bad, had, pad, Dad, lad, fad and mad.
Make 2 of each word and play the memory game, hide one word around the room and have your child find it.
Read a book that has an s in the title.
Use finger paint to make an S.
Play bingo with 3 letter words.
Play the Upper case song and have your child draw each letter on a white board. (correctly)
Use plastic Easter eggs:  Hide a plastic letter s inside one.  Have your child guess which egg the s is hiding in.
Practice printing the letter s on paper.
Game: What is my favourite clown.
