Introducing letters and their sounds


By Learn Well


Nursery rhymes hold a simple kind of magic. Through rhyme and repetition, they wiggle their way into our forever memories. I know that if I were to ask you which was your favourite as a child, you will likely start to recall it with words and actions!


Many nursery rhymes dating back hundreds of years ago are passed down from generation to generation and loved by so many. And what's more, they can be used for more than just a sing-along; nursery rhymes can even help form the basis of a fun, interactive lesson!


Our Alphabet Rhyme Time book (307306) can be used to help you plan lessons around those nursery rhymes we've all grown to love. The book includes a nursery rhyme for each letter of the alphabet and a treasure trove of themed activities related to the song that you can recreate in your setting.


To give you a taste of what you can expect from the book, I've chosen one of my favourite nursery rhymes you’ll find inside and some of the activities that come with it.
