,QUESTION 1
Define what a folktale is in your own words.
A folktale is a traditional story passed down from generation to generation, often by
word of mouth. These stories usually teach lessons, explain cultural beliefs, or
entertain, and they often include characters like animals, humans, or magical beings.
Folktales are shared among people within a culture and change slightly over time as
they are retold.

Question 2.1
What are two benefits of exposing children to nursery rhymes?
(Hunt 2004: 275).
Language Development and Sound Recognition
Nursery rhymes help children learn different sounds and words. As mentioned in the
text, children engage in their earliest language experiences and acquisition through
nursery rhymes. They learn how to form different sounds and are introduced to a
variety of concepts at an early age, which aids in language development.
Mathematical and Conceptual Learning
Nursery rhymes often include counting and basic mathematical concepts. Examples
like "One, two, buckle my shoe" and "Baa, baa, black sheep" teach children about
numbers, everyday life concepts, and social settings, helping them learn in an
engaging, rhythmic way.
Question 2.2
The above nursery rhyme makes use of several poetic elements. Identify
and provide an example of two of these elements used in the poem.
Repetition:
"Run, run, run."
