  • Have students place Response Cards 15 through 18 on their lap. (You
    may choose to focus on two nursery rhymes at a time.) Say a few key
    words from any of the nursery rhymes from the past two lessons (e.g.,
    Bo Peep, alone, horn, meadow, wool, egg, etc.) and ask students to
    hold up the Response Card that relates to the words you say.

  • Say the poem together.

  • Then say the poem again but leave out a few key words for students
    to fill in. Playful repetition will help students learn the poem.

  • Have partners try to recite the poems to each other.
    Note: This is the final opportunity to use the Recording Sheet for
    Recitation of Nursery Rhymes Assessment (Instructional Master 3B-2)
    to assess students’ ability to recite a nursery rhyme.
