Since I discovered my kindergarten students don't know Mother Goose, I have been sharing one rhyme per storytime with them. They seem to enjoy them. We recite them in a call-and -response method, then slowly together, then more quickly. I incorporate awareness of rhymes, rhythmic motions, hand gestures and dance.
I've used The Neighborhood Mother Goose because I like the multicultural, urban imagery.

As we discuss folk tales, I have been thinking of nursery rhymes as part of our cultural heritage. In many ways, these seem to be a form of folktales for the very young.
