Nursery rhymes are also great tools for teaching word parts like syllables and blends.They are very helpful and there are plenty of ways to use them in a preschool. Here are 6 great strategies to teach nursery rhymes in preschool.

Use Funny Voices
Say the rhyme one time or several times, but use a different voice each time. Say it in a robot voice, British accent, Texas twang, Opera voice, scary witch voice, baby voice, monster voice, tiny mouse voice, or pirate voice. You can also have students do actions while they are reading. Have them pretend to throw a ball, do

    As a result of his disability, Versyrus struggles with reading in the areas of phonological awareness, phonics and comprehension. He has difficulty with identifying rhyme, blending and segmenting syllables. He also struggles with identifying story elements and putting his ideas into words.

    I did this through positive praise, helping them sound out words, asking questions about the books to check their understanding and recording feedback in their reading logs. I wrote down in their logs new and challenging words for them to focus on this week. I also noticed that some children used the pictures to try and guess the words. I encouraged them to look at the words and not be afraid of the text. I covered up some text with my fingers so they could focus a sentence at a time. I finished each 1 on 1 with a positive statement, for example, Child A sounded out words more confidently this week and Child B added expression to their…

    I read short sentences aloud from a book (The Monster of the Woods) and have children tap or clap word of the sentences as I read them. I have children focus on the sounds of the sentences and words. For example, in the context of a book Owl, Rabbit, and Mouse have a very important meeting at Owl's house. I said that “They have a very important meeting". ‘Ready? They- have- a- very- important- meeting. We clapped six words in that…

    To help with her pronunciation we did a rhyming game with flash cards. I created several different levels to the game. The first level was all “at” words. One flashcard had the word “at” on it in red. Then there were other flash cards that had, m, r, b, h, c, s, f on it. the at stayed in the same place and then the first letter flash card changed. In order to move on, Genesis had to say the correct word. The second level was all words that rhymed with “ug” and then “ox.” The last level of the game was the hardest. All of the words Genesis had to say rhymed with “ail.” To she has to say mail, rail, pail, quail, and…

    Babies respond differently to some sounds than others and from an early age are able to distinguish sound patterns. They use their voices to make contact and to let people know what they need and how they feel. Music and dance also play a key role in language development for young children. Rhymes and songs are particularly important and enjoyable for babies.…

    First, it is said that learning starts in the home. Parents read these nursery rhymes to kids not knowing that they are teaching in the process. For example, children are taught two words as a baby, Hi and Bye. These two words build children vocabulary and critical thinking at a young age, because they have to know when exactly to say hi or bye to someone. Laurie Harper quotes, “Speaking, singing, and reading aloud stimulate a child’s understanding and use of spoken and written language” (pg. 75). Mother Goose nursery rhymes are all different forms of reading, singing, and speaking. The rhythms of Mother Goose nursery rhymes deal with singing, speaking, reading, and also memorialization. Harper also states, “Children sensitive to rhyme begins to expand this common sound knowledge to other words in different contexts which eventually contributes to their ability to read, write, and spell” (pg. 76). She is basically saying that children will eventually get tired of the same rhyming and rhythms and want to fulfil their ability to know more ways the words can be used.…

    The oldest children's songs of which we have records are lullabies, intended to help a child sleep. Lullabies can be found in every human culture.[2] The English term lullaby is thought to come from "lu, lu" or "la la" sound made by mothers or nurses to calm children, and "by by" or "bye bye", either another lulling sound, or a term for good night.[3] Until the modern era lullabies were usually only recorded incidentally in written sources. The Roman nurses' lullaby, "Lalla, Lalla, Lalla, aut dormi, aut lacta", is recorded in a scholium on Persius and may be the oldest to survive.[4]…

    Any song with repetition will be good if the children are new for the music time. Songs with too many words don't work unless if we want to be the soloist. Echo songs such as “Are You Sleeping” also can work well. We can even get creative and change the words in the songs. For example, if it is close to meal time, we could sing “are you hungry?” and have the children suggest their names or their peer’s names. When we change the words such as we can see often so much participation, fun and attraction that the song may never…
