School Days

Product Description

From "The Alphabet Song" to "The Nursery Rhyme Rap", children will sing and learn about a place they spend much of their time: school. The enclosed CD features 28 fun songs-old favorites and originals-and the book offers more than 300 activities that teach children about starting school.

Every song has:

• Literacy Links to teach comprehension skills, letter knowledge, and phonemic awareness.
• Curriculum Connections to integrate the content of the song with curriculum areas such as math, art, sand and water play, science, outdoor play, field trips, and discovery.
• A "Did You Know?" section with fun and interesting facts related to the song.
• A vocabulary list to enhance children's language skills.
• Theme connections.
• Home activities to extend the learning.
• Related children's books.

All children love to sing and learn, so the book includes both English language learner strategies and special needs adaptations.
