Indeed, the nuances of learning which include reading, writing, listening and speaking, is built on this very foundation, ‘Melody and rhythm, not only help children to learn the rhymes but they also develop their oral language, vocabulary and listening skis, ‘The ability to hear the different sounds in words is an important pre~ ‘reading skill. The development of phonemic {hearing] awareness in children who recite rhymes is higher than those who do not. Teachers of elementary schools have found it more difficult to teach kids to read when there is little or no prior ‘oral activity. In other words, proficiency in reciting rhymes is agood indicator of how well achildwill earn to read The importance of rhymes in building the foundation of phonological and literacy development cannot be over emphasized. The concept of rhyming words, word families, vowels, consonants, punctuation and other concepts can be. successfully taught through nursery rhymes, Tn fact, an entire curriculum can be integrated around nursery rhymes. Thus >» "The Alphabet Song' is the very first introduction to the English alphabet > Baa Baa Black Sheep’ is a good poem to teach children ebout the ‘importance of animalsand their contribution to our ives > Rhymes lke "Ding Dong Bell’ can be used to create awareness about the need for kindness to animals Come Sing With Me is a series of three books for Pre-Nursery, Nursery ‘and KG classes, Book I includes popular English rhymes while new rhymes have been introduced in Book 2 and Book 3. These are theme based and are aimed at introducing various concepts that the childwill learn in ater classes. Seveveese evecs For the Teacher ‘Most children would come to school already knowing some of the rhymes (like ‘Mary Had « Little Lamb’ or "Humpty Dumpty") by heart. However, it would not be right for the Yeacher to assume that all children will have orientation in rhymes. A large number of Thdan children are not exposed to English rhymes in ‘their homes as they come from different socio-economic backgrounds. Tt is, ‘therefore, best to start with the most popular rhymes in English. As an intraduction, you can first read (or sing) a rhyme to the children, ile they sing along. Lt is important te draw the child's attention to the pictures in the book while reciting. Thus, pointing to the picture of a cow when a cow is ‘mentioned in the rhyme will help the child Yo associate the picture with the sound of the word, and at the same time, expand the child's vocabulary. Some rhymes like “Incy Wincy Spider’ are great to read while using related finger motions. Using movements or hand patterns, will give children a chance to imitate you, and practice their metor skills, Start this with children from the very beginning. Some researchers believe that movement languages are learned by children evenwhen they are too young to talk. You can also use rhymes to introduce children to different cultures and lifestyles. The rhyme about ‘Jack and Jill! fetching water can start off a discussion onhow we get water and how some people get water from well, Rhymes can be used to enhance learning through the Q&A method. Ask ‘questions like “Do you have a pet at heme?", “What clothes do you wear in winter?", "Where does wool come from?" etc. Use these questions as a starting- ff point for discussions on awide range of topics. ‘Thus, with o littl bit of imagination, educators can use nursery rhymes to impart diverse learning experiences in the early stages of schooling.
