Hannah becomes happy

The Letter Hh

Letter H Introduction

The “Intro” to “Hannah becomes happy” gives a brief overview of the core components found in a unit for the letter “Hh”.

The first of these components involves an adapted, narrated and illustrated “Story”. The last is an original “Song” in which the children are seen dramatically retelling the story. The other two components are instructional videos for manuscript “Handwriting”, and interactive “Craft” supporting the story.

Let's Tell The Story!

The storyteller’s narration and Free Bible images’ illustrations combine to make the adapted story about the joy of Hannah (as her belief in God was rewarded with the birth of a son, Samuel) come alive for kids using costumes in a stage setting! It is part of the “Hh” unit in the 26 letter-related “A-Z Bible Stories” curriculum.

Images for this story can be found at freebibleimages.org/illustrations/samuel-born/

The lyrics and original music created for the “Song” for “Hannah becomes happy” combine to draw attention to the retelling and revisiting of the Bible story.

Watch as kids become engaged in the dramatized song about the joy of Hannah. The adapted story comes alive for kids using costumes and props in a stage setting!

Get everyone to participate in retelling the story! Dress up with scarves, pillowcases, and sheets!

The lyrics are available on the downloadable Hh handwriting sheet.

It's Craft Time!

The “Craft” instructional video for “Hh” leads the viewer through the interactive, flip-up downloadable sheet for “Hannah becomes happy”.

Let's Practice Writing!

The “Handwriting” video for “Hh” (notice the letters “H” and “h” found in “Hannah becomes happy”) provides step-by-step instructions with likeable personalities naming the various line segments used in manuscript writing: Verty (vertical), Slanty (diagonal), Zontals (horizontal), and Curvy (curved).

Both correct hand position and the distinction between upper and lower case letters are emphasized.

A downloadable resource worksheet includes the words to the story’s song and an illustration.
