Level 1 - Exposure to Nursery Rhymes

I have chosen this nursery rhyme because in it the words that rhymes are in close proximity to one another, the lyric is really easy to learn and you can sing the nursery rhymes doing movements and gestures and in this way children can interact and they involve in the song.
