Sneaky Like a Fox

Theme:  Letter "X"
X is sneaky like a fox.  It usually comes in the middle or at the end of a word.  Some of the X words we focused on include:  ox, box, six, ax, & x-ray. We learned that sometimes people write OXOX to send hugs and kisses.  We had fun making the X sound.  We listened to some words and then determined where the X sound was (the beginning, middle, or end)
