Juju's story: The Jelly-Bean Eater
Jeem has jelly in his tummy.
Jeem is very hungry. He found a giant jelly bean and swallowed it whole! Now you can see it sitting right inside his big round belly. One dot, inside.
Sound: j, as in jelly.
Looks like: ح Ḥaa, خ Khaa. Look at the dots to tell them apart!
Juju's Letter Train: Jeem at the start, middle and end
Arabic letters hold hands like a train. Start reading at the engine on the right, then walk back along the train. The letter changes its look in each spot.
