Finger Fun and Action Rhymes

Part of the "Pelican Big Books" series, these traditional verses have teaching themes focusing on rhyming words and following text to perform actions. The series has been specifically written for the shared reading part of the literacy hour and supports the genre requirements of the National Literacy Strategy. Teacher's notes are included at the back of each Big Book, providing ideas for Text, Sentence and Word level activities. Smaller versions of the Big Books allow for follow-up work in groups and teacher's notes provide ideas for group work.
