[RFHF] Embracing Diversity: Awesome Online Rhyme Resource

[Rick Samuelson]

Hi Reading for Healthy Families friends,

I just saw this online:
http://www.bpl.bc.ca/kids/embracing-diversity

It is an online rhyme video project from the Burnaby Public Library (in British Columbia).  It has a collection of nursery rhyme videos in 15 different languages: http://www.bpl.bc.ca/kids/embracing-diversity/songs-and-rhymes

This is a major resource for folks working with ELL families who speak a language other than English or Spanish (we have a number of Spanish videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/Birth2Six as do the StoryBlocks folks: http://www.storyblocks.org/videos/language/espanol/).

Take care!!

Know all that there is to be knowed.
But they none of them know one half as much
As intelligent Mr Toad!"
