『每周韵律』Itsy Bitsy Spider 小小蜘蛛儿

作者简介

Itsy bitsy spider

小小蜘蛛儿

Went up the water spout

爬上排水管

Down came the rain

一场雨下来

And washed the spider out

冲下小蜘蛛

Out came the sun

太阳出来了

And dried up all the rain

晒干了雨水

So itsy bitsy spider

小小蜘蛛儿

Went up the spout again

又爬上排水管

逃逃朗读

家庭指导清单

Looking at words and Letters

1. Ask your child to find the shortest line in the poem and then count the words in that line.

2. Ask your child to find and underline each “s”in the poem.

3. Ask, what is this poem about?

Playing with Sounds

1. Say, let's change the word rain. What if we added “t” to the beginning? What word would that be? (train) What if the word started with “p”? (pain) What if it started with “spr”? (sprain)

2. Say, I will stretch out some words. You tell me what they are:

Rrr…aaay…nnn(rain)

c…aaay...mmm(came)

3. Say, now you try it. Stretch these words out: sun, spider

Beginning to Read

1. Ask your child to name some words that rhyme with sun. Write them as your child says them. To start off, offer some beginning sounds: “b”, “f”, “r”.

2. Say, Do these words end with the same sound?

itsy, bitsy

down, came

and, rain

spout, out

3. Ask your child to draw a picture of the poem,then tell you what it is about.

4. Write spout on a sheet of paper. Point out the letters –out. Brainstorm, write, and read other words that rhyme and explain that all these words belong to the –out word family.

5. Together, choose two or three words from the poem. Add them to your word wall and practice these words daily. Or add them to your child's word bank ( a collection of words on cards, one word per card)

这是美国学前班的配套韵律学习教材，除了练习自然拼读法和为阅读做准备，还有数数、大小比较这些概念，甚至还有小科学常识学习、画画之类的项目。美国小学三年级以下的语文、数学、科学等学科都是同一个老师任课，自然在教学策略上也很讲究综合全面性。我们可以根据孩子的年龄和接受程度，循序渐进地选择最适合孩子的项目，不一定每次都全部做完。
