Now you will learn about the letter and sound B.
B uratino, b ara b an,
B- tree, b- ulka and b- anan.
Who plays the trumpet ?
Our guest, b ukva " B "!
As you learned earlier, letters come in vowels and consonants. We became familiar with the vowel sound [a] and its letter, and you know that when we pronounce a vowel sound, the air comes out freely, without encountering any obstacles on the way. If the air meets obstacles, it means a consonant sound is pronounced.
In this lesson we will learn about the letter B and its sound, the first letter of the alphabet with a consonant sound.
When pronouncing the sound [b], the air encounters an obstacle on the way, we cannot sing such a sound, this sound is a consonant.
Let's pronounce this sound in words: b a b ochka, b fir-tree, b mustache.
We will hear a ringing voice. The sound [b] is sonorous. Let's determine whether the sound [b] is hard or soft.
Let's compare the words: bashnya , b white.
In one word the sound [b] is hard, in the second the sound [b´] is soft. The letter is the same, but the sounds are different. In this case, for the correct pronunciation of words with B , the helper letters that come after will help us. If followed by the letters E, Yu, E, I, I , then the consonant sound is soft. If followed by the letters O, A, U, Y , then the consonant sound is hard.
The letter B denotes a consonant, voiced sound, which can be either hard or soft.
The letter B in Russian behaves actively and can appear anywhere in a word. For example, a ballerina.
At the beginning of the word, a hard sound [b] is heard, since the letter B is followed by the letter A , which indicates the hardness of the consonant sound.
The word be gun. At the beginning of the word, a soft sound [b´] is heard, since the letter B is followed by the letter E , which indicates the softness of the consonant sound.
Let's remember the words in which the letter B is in the middle of the word. Guess the riddle:
We returned at a late hour.
Who greets us at the door?
Who wags his tail with happiness
And he dances on his hind legs...
(E. Grudanov)
Answer: so ba ka
In the middle of the word, a hard sound [b] is heard, since the letter B is followed by the letter A , which indicates the hardness of the consonant sound.
Let's look at words with a soft [b´] in the middle: ki bi tka.
In the middle of the word, a soft sound [b´] is heard, since the letter B is followed by the letter I , which indicates the softness of the consonant sound.
Let's look at words with the letter b at the end.
The word table b .
A word is written with the letter B at the end, but when you pronounce the word pillar, the sound [p] is heard. We'll soon find out why this happens. Let's name words in which the letter B occurs more than once: b o b er, b a b ochka, b u b lik, b u b e n, b a b ushka, b a o b a b.
Guess the riddle, the letter B :
Without worrying about the weather,
in a white ,
And on one of the warm days
May gives her earrings.
Answer: birch .
Let's count how many letters B , hard and soft sounds [b] are in the riddle. This riddle contains two letters B , one hard sound [b] and one soft sound [b´].
This letter has a funny belly and looks like a hippopotamus.

Consonants [b], [b'], letters B, b
One day Boris the ram bought 2 drums at the market, sat down under the birch trees and let’s play.
Then the beaver Bim came running with a balalaika and also began to play.
They made such a noise that a squirrel came down from the tree and asked:
─ Can’t you play more quietly?!
And the musicians started playing even louder.
─ If you don’t play, I’ll give you bagels.
The musicians ate all the bagels, and when the squirrel left they started playing again: boom! boom! boom!
The squirrel came down from the tree again.
─ Look, I have something interesting!
─ Wow. Show me, show me. The musicians dropped their instruments and unwrapped an interesting package.
─ What are these interesting letters? Squirrel, tell me.
─ Will you stop playing?
─ Yeah. We promise.
─ Well then listen.
This is a capital B
and a small
letter b
. And today I will tell you about these letters.
So, let's begin. Let's get acquainted first. Musicians, what is your name?
─ My name is Boris.
─ And I’m Bim.
─ Very good, but my name is just Belochka.
Look, Boris's name begins with a hard consonant sound [b]
, and the name Bima begins with a soft consonant
sound [b']
.
But in the word tambourine there is also a hard consonant sound [b]
and a soft consonant
sound [b']
. Moreover, an icon similar to a comma is added to a soft sound, which shows that this sound is soft.
All sounds in writing are indicated by letters. Here are the sounds [b]
and
[b']
in writing are indicated by a capital
letter B
and a small
letter b
. And all sounds are indicated in square brackets so that they can be distinguished from letters.
So, you must remember that we speak and hear sounds, but we see and write letters.
Sounds [b]
and
[b']
are
consonant sounds
. Consonant sounds cannot be sung like vowels, and when we pronounce them, our lips or teeth or tongue prevent the air from passing freely in the mouth and an obstruction occurs.
Let's try to pronounce sounds [b]
and
[b']
. Lips prevent you from pronouncing these sounds freely. This means they agree.
─ What is the best way to remember hard consonants and soft consonants?
─ And in order to better remember these sounds, we will now perform an interesting task. Here are the cameras for you: Borya will photograph objects and objects whose names contain a hard sound [b]
, and Bim, will photograph objects or objects whose names have a soft
sound [b']
. And I'll check it later.
Well, show me what you got.
Borya, name words that have hard sounds [b]
.
─ Butterfly, apple, barrel, Pinocchio.
─ That's right. All these words have a capital B.
and the small
letter b
indicate the hard
sound [b]
.
Bim, now it's your turn. Say your words.
─ Birch, hippopotamus, Snow White, binoculars.
─ Bim, you’re great too. All these words have a capital B.
and the small
letter b
indicate the soft
sound [b']
.
All consonant sounds can sound voiced or unvoiced. Listen to how loudly the sounds [b] sound
] and
[b']
. That's why we say they are voiced.
Capital letter B
and the small
letter b
are letters that should prompt us to pronounce
voiced paired sounds [b ]
and
[b']
.
But these letters are very tricky! Indeed, in some words, instead of the sounds [b]
and
[b'],
we pronounce and hear
the sounds [p]
or
[p']
.
For example, in the word mushroom. We write the letter b
, but hear a hard consonant
sound [p]
.
─ Oh, what evil letters, why do they confuse children?
─ They are not evil, but very good and wise letters. They want children to be very attentive when writing and think about which letter to write.
─ I see. How do you know which letter to write in a word: b
or
p
.
─ Very simple. We need to change the word so that after the letter b
there was a vowel.
For example: mushrooms. You see, we hear the hard sound [b]
, so in the word mushroom we will write
the letter b
.
Now we will see how these letters are written.
Letter B
It can be large (it’s called
capital
) and small (it’s called
lowercase
). A capital letter is always larger than a small letter, and a small letter is always smaller than a large letter.
─ Can I write these letters too?
─ And me!
─ Good. Someone joked and erased half of all the letters. Complete the missing elements of capital letter B
and a small
letter b
.
─ Can I go first? Give me a pencil quickly! Now I’ll quickly add the capital letter B
.
─ Here. This is the letter B.
─ But that’s not correct. How many times have I told you: if you rush, you will make all the sheep laugh. And you have to start from the beginning of the lines. Come on, remember how to spell the capital letter B
.
─ Now, now. Yeah, I remembered. This element is written on the right, but I wrote it on the left.
─ Now I’ll write everything correctly.
─ Yes, everything is correct.
─ And I’ll add a small letter b
.
─ It’s so interesting to watch you. Well done. Together we completed this task.
Well, we learned to write letters. And now I’ll tell you when the capital letter b
, and when small.
If someone or something is given names, then these names are written with a capital letter
.
Capitalized
The patronymics and surnames of people are written.
Capitalized
the names of animals and the names of fairy-tale characters are written. For example: Bim the beaver, Pinocchio and Snow White.
Capitalized
the names of countries, cities, rivers, lakes and villages are written. For example: the country of Belarus and the deepest lake in the world, Baikal.
And also with a capital letter
words are written at the beginning of a sentence. For example, in a tongue twister:
White sheep beat drums.
─ This is probably a tongue twister about me.
─ Of course about you.
A with a small letter
many other words are written. For example: rams and drums.
Well, we learned how to write letters, and now it’s time to read them. Here we have the word Bim. What sound does this word begin with?
─ From a soft voiced consonant [b']
.
Then come the vowel sound [i]
and the consonant
sound [m]
.
We combine these sounds together and we get the word Bim, which consists of one syllable
.
And a little later we will learn to read sentences and texts.
Well, we got acquainted with the hard sound [b]
and soft
sound [b']
, which in writing are designated by a capital
letter B
and a small
letter b
.
And Boris and Bim decided to become literate. And instead of music they began to study letters and learn to read. And the squirrel has many more interesting letters.
To help the teacher. Literacy training. All about the letter B.
The letter B is the second letter of the Russian alphabet. The letter B denotes a consonant voiced sound: hard [B] and soft [B'].
Previously, in Old Church Slavonic, the letter was called “buki”, which is translated into Russian as “letter”.
Words starting with the letter B: bun, lingonberry, squirrel, brother, broth...
The letter B in the middle of words: cobra, watermelon, cathedral, hoop, lunch...
The letter B at the end of words: crab, forehead, box, ...
Several B's in one word: baobab, drum, bean...

Tale about the letter B
So, on the very top floor of the Alphabet lived the letter “A”. And on the floor below lived the letter “B”. The letter “B” alone became bored.
- I’d like to go and make friends with someone. Eh, it’s good for the letter “I”, it alone makes up the whole word “I”. And to make a word, I definitely need a company of other letters. I wonder what kind of word I should make up, with what letters I should combine it? I’ll go and ask the letter “A”, she’s the first one, she knows everything.
The letter “B” went to visit the letter “A”.
“Help me,” he says, “with the letter “A”, make up some word for me!”
“Okay,” the letter “A” answers her, “let me keep you company.”
The letter "A" took the letter "B" by the hand.

It turned out BA! What if we add BA again? It turns out BABA!
