This week we concentrated on learning some of our favorite nursery rhymes. We decided to become authors and illustrators this week and create our very own nursery rhyme books and since nursery rhymes consist of many rhyming words what a perfect week to really work on such an important skill. Each day we worked on 2 pages of our nursery rhyme books. First we read the rhyme together, then we highlighted the rhyming words on our smart board, next each student highlighted the rhyming words in their own book, and lastly we create illustrations for each page.
On Monday we read Humpty Dumpty and Hickory Dickory Dock. We made our own little cracked egg sitting on a wall
and learned all about telling time on a clock. Each student worked with a buddy and helped me place the numbers 1-12 on our hula hoop floor clock. Then we recreated our own clocks and placed the numbers in the correct order.
Wednesday we read Baa Baa Black Sheep and Jack and Jill then we created a fluffy little black sheep
and a cute movable picture of Jack and Jill falling down the hill.
On Thursday we finished our Nursery Rhyme book with 1,2, Buckle My Shoe where the students had to match the word that rhymed with the corresponding rhyming picture (2-show, 4-door, 6-pick up sticks, 8-lay them straight, 10-big fat hen).
On Friday we made our uppercase N into a nest with a birdie
And our lowercase n into a nap time/nighttime n.
I hope everyone has enjoyed reading their nursery rhyme books with their Little's and be on the lookout for some more rhyming words.
