About this coloring page
G has a hard sound and a soft one. The hard sound, made at the back of the throat, starts goat, gate, garden and grapes. The soft sound is the same as J, and you hear it in gem, giant and giraffe. So the word on this letter G coloring page, Giraffe, uses the soft G, which is a good talking point: Giraffe and Goat both start with G, but they sound different. The page has a big Gg and tracing rows.
Capital G starts like a C: begin at the top right and curve around to the left and back up toward the right. Then add a short line going in, like a little shelf. Lowercase g is a small circle with a line on its right that drops below the writing line and curls back to the left in a hook. Point out that g is one of the letters with a tail that hangs down.
