Teaching songs, rhyme is a great way to help your child develop their language and communication skills.
I always play songs and rhymes through multimedia like LCD and using mobile phone. They love changes in variation and vocal tone. This keeps it exciting for them and helps them to learn about the natural sounds of a language. It gives children a sense of joy and excitement.
It also help us to learn to play with words. They tune our ears to all the sounds in the word. By hearing different sounds we learn how sounds combine and blend together to form a word. It also help children develop their non-verbal communication skills. They love imitating, trying to copy what they see on the screen.
So I take some time every day to sing and rhyme with my students.
Integrating ICT has really impacted children's learning, so I urge you to continue and spread the messages to your colleagues in your school.
