GEESE SMALL WONDERS
Early Literacy Focus: Print Awareness (Helping children understand that print has meaning) When you are reading with your child, you can run your finger under the words of the title or a repeated phrase as you say it. This helps children understand that you are reading the text, not the pictures.
“Clap and Sing Hello!”We clap and sing hello,We clap and sing hello,With our friends at storytime,We clap and sing hello!(Wave and sing hello; stomp and sing hello.)
Geese Song (Farmer in the Dell) The geese say honk, The geese say honk, They waddle and they flap their wings, The geese say honk.
