The 5 Practices of Early Literacy
Why Sing?
"Quite simply, children need music to fully develop, and these days children have fewer and fewer opportunities for singing in their lives. Using songs in story times is a wonderful way to involve even the youngest children in language, and to model that involvement to parents and caregivers. By encouraging adults to sing with their children every day, you are helping them build relationships and a love of language,"~ Nancy Stewart in her introduction to the 5 Practices of Early Literacy
