TRANSCRIPT
Session Objectives:• Understand the importance of Nursery Rhymes.• Learn various ways Nursery Rhymes can be
incorporated into the curriculum.• List ways Nursery Rhymes can be used to meet
state objectives.
Nursery Rhymes:
Reading nursery rhymes daily helps the student’s brain segment words into syllables and hear similarities between words that rhyme or start
with the same sound.TEA Pre-K Guidelines:B.6.Child can produce a word that rhymes with a given word.
Nursery Rhymes Can:• Enrich young children’s vocabulary.• Provide opportunities for oral language
development.• Introduce children to basic story structure such as
problem and solution, cause and effect.• Be easily integrated into already existing themes.• Be FUN and engaging for young children.
Teach each nursery rhyme for a one or two week duration instead of “chunking” all
nursery rhymes into one, brief unit.
Teaching each Nursery Rhyme explicitly will ensure that your students receive plenty of rhyming practice throughout the entire
year.
Nursery Rhymes can be easily integrated into your already existing themes
