Fundamentals to Reading



 Nursery rhymes are one way to get obtain the pre-literacy skills necessary to become an avid reader. Rhyming words are actually words that belong to the same "family". For instance, the "_at" family has the words: bat, cat, fat, hat, mat, pat, rat, sat. So, if your child knows that cat rhymes with hat eventually they will make the association that if cat is C-A-T then hat is just H-A-T and they will know the whole "family".

The people of bus songs give you access to the lyrics and music to over 1000 nursery rhymes. Its never too early to start!
