- [0](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/lessons/230-letters-colours-and-points/0/) — The English alphabet has 26 letters.
- [1](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/lessons/230-letters-colours-and-points/1/) — Five of them, a, e, i, o and u, are vowels; in this lesson every other letter, y too, is a consonant.
- [2](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/lessons/230-letters-colours-and-points/2/) — So the alphabet has 26 − 5 = 21 consonants.
- [3](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/lessons/230-letters-colours-and-points/3/) — A rainbow has 7 colours, a clock face 12 numbers and a compass 4 main points.
- [4](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/lessons/230-letters-colours-and-points/4/) — 3 children each write every consonant once: 3 × 21 = 63 consonants.
