As your baby develops even more, you can ask for other rhyming words to go with the ones in the poem. You repeat the word in the poem, say the beginning sound of a new word, pause and see if your child can supply the new word. When you are working on listening, sound is the key, not spelling. Poems and songs should be a continuing part of your child's life. They have a direct influence on comprehension and phonics.
Rhymes lead to sounds, vowels and consonants.
The next short sweet lesson will show you how to play with rhyming words after many lessons with favorite poems. If you need WinZip, you can get it here . Web site designed and maintained by HeatherWeb . All rights reserved.
