Service Interruption: Friday, October 16th after 9 pm – Tuesday, October 20th morning
Our network is growing! We are excited to welcome Rolling Meadows Library and Wauconda Area Public Library to our consortium. This means more resources at your fingertips, from books to movies and more. During this period, please note that our app, calendar and some additional online resources will be temporarily unavailable. Rest assured, none of your items will be due during this time and you can still check out materials. Full service is expected to resume on Tuesday, October 20th. Thank you for your understanding and patience during this exciting time!
Not only do both books emphasize movement, they also contain repetition and rhyming text.
Hearing and using rhyme, rhythm and repetition as well as moving their bodies helps children develop early literacy and gross motor skills.
Additionally, they help with memory and build cognitive skills like reasoning.
Pairing learning with music can do this as well and is why we sang and danced at the park today.
If you didn’t get a chance to move to these stories, we left a chalk course behind.
This course not only encourages motion, but also works on receptive language and executive functions to prepare children to follow directions in preparation for school.
Below is a list of great titles you can pick up at the library that emphasizes movement while reading the story.
