Mother Goose Time
I accidentally came across this book of rhymes on the internet while looking for something else. There are 24 pages of rhymes, songs, nursery rhymes, hello and goodbye rhymes, fingerplays, action rhymes and lap rhymes. It comes from the Henrico County Public Libraries in Virginia, USA. It’s a free download which I think would be great for all infant teachers.

Scratch
I’m doing the NCTE summer course on Scratch Programming and Numeracy in Senior Primary Classes this week. I’d heard and read a lot about Scratch over the years but knew virtually nothing about how to work it or how it could be used in the classroom. Scratch, developed by the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab, is a free programming language that makes it easy to create your own interactive stories, animations, games, music, and art — and share your creations on the web. read more…
