Nicola Bayley's Book of Nursery Rhymes

Nicola Bayley's Book of Nursery Rhymes


Author/Illustrator: Nicola Bayley
Genre: Poetry
Awards: None
Grades: PK-2

This book is filled with nursery rhymes for children. Some of the nursery rhymes in this book are Humpty Dumpty, Three Blind Mice, Old King Cole, and my favorite There was an old woman who lived in a shoe. Each page is filled with vivid illustrations related to the nursery rhyme.

I would use this book in my classroom to teach students different nursery rhymes. Since they are mostly patterns, it helps students recall and memorization skills. It is a book appropriate for children in grades PK through second grade. I could use this book in a lesson dealing with rhymes, storytelling, or for morning activities. Listening comprehension helps with students reading comprehension as well, therefore reading them out loud to students will help them develop the skills they need to become excellent readers.
