Mother Goose Mondays

First grade teacher, Laura Stamos, in her blog Our Camp Read-a-Lot,  describes a routine she uses for introducing today's young children to traditional nursery rhymes. Elementary librarians, especially those serving preschool classes, might be able to take advantage of  her favorite resource, Mother Goose Brain Boost: Using Music and Movement to Teach Cognitive Skills by Steven Traugh and Susan Traugh. She says her students look forward to getting up, moving around and being silly!  Who wouldn't???                                     Katie
