September Word Review

I believe that we should expose our children to a varied vocabulary. This month we introduced many new words with our themes. Ask your children about the words and see if they can use them in a sentence. Chlorophyll Autumn Fleece Shearing Sheep Extinct Fossils Paleontologist  (Dinosaur names) Orchard Harvest Dormant Nursery rhymes help children develop reading skills. We learned Mary Had A Little Lamb this month. Have them sing the song as they wash their hands, put on their shoes, or make their bed. Substitute their own name for Mary's and the add something silly for them. Like... Bobby had a little book, little book, little book. Booby had a little book, he liked to read it so. Sammy had a lego dude... Katie had a baby doll... The rhythm and the rhyme is important, the content can be ridiculous...your kids will love to hear you sing silly songs about them! Thank you, Miss Sherry
