Last year, author Jayne Hover presented to Blanco Elementary primary teachers how to use nursery rhymes to teach reading and writing. K-2 teachers piloted some of the lessons. The following students had their work published in the book “Text Structures from Nursery Rhymes-Teaching Reading & Writing to Young Children.” Students were in 1st grade teacher Mindy Lay’s class, and 2nd grade teacher Kristen Schultz’s class.
