To kick off October’s Story Explorers book club, we talked about the importance of nursery rhymes in teaching the rhythm and cadence of a language.
Read La Madre Goose by Susan Middleton Elya. I only read a few of the rhymes: Peter Peter; Three Little Gatoncitos; Hey Diddle Diddle; The Little Cerdo went to Market; Little Boy Azul; Little Juan Ramon; One Potato, Dos Papas, and Twinkle Twinkle Small Estrella.
We played two rounds of hot potato while reciting the One Potato, Dos Papas rhyme.
We made star sensory bags like this post from Playground Park Bench.
We used Tube Locks to make horns for Little Boy Azul.
We practiced our fine motor and early math skills sorting and making patterns for the mitoncitos for the three little gatitos.
