Teacher Evaluation: I would definitely use this in a early childhood to kindergarten classrooms. This illustrated version of the nursery rhyme This Old Man will aid children in counting and phonological awareness. I think this book could be read for several purposes as a stated it could help with counting and phonological awareness. I would first read the book just for the students to hear the way the book goes and then read it a second time inviting students to sing along.
Summary: This nursery rhyme is about an old man playing the nick nack. The song goes on with the count the old man playing going all the way up to ten. The song rhymes each count with the object the old man plays on. The song ends when the old man reaches 10 counts and play on a hen.
