Flannel Board: 5 Nocturnal Animals
Five nocturnal animals, sitting by the door.
The firefly flashed away, and then there were four.
Four nocturnal animals, sitting by the tree.
The beaver started gnawing, then there were three.
Three nocturnal animals, sat on tractor new.
Bat hung upside down, then there were two.
Two nocturnal animals, looking for some fun.
Hungry owl caught a mouse, then there was one.
One nocturnal animal, watching for the sun.
Raccoon went home to bed, then there was none.

Even though most of the kids stayed engaged with this story, I thought it was too long for storytime.

Song: Boom, Bang!
(use rhythm sticks for actions)
Boom, bang, boom, bang! (hammer sticks)
Rumpety, lumpety, bump! (drum on floor)
Zoom, zam, zoom, zam! (scrap sticks)
Clippety, clappety, clump! (hit sticks together)
Rustles and bustles (roll sticks)
And swishes and zings (hit ends on floor)
What wonderful noises a rhythm stick brings!

Nursery Rhyme/short poem: Chubby Little Snowman
A chubby little snowman
Had a carrot nose. (point to nose)
Along came a bunny (hold up two fingers on right hand to make bunny)
And what do you suppose?
That hungry little bunny
Looking for his lunch
Nibble, nibble, crunch.

Book (on Thursday): The Napping House
Because I read "What's that awful smell" I didn't want to do another "farm" story. For some reason I have been hesitant to read "The Napping House"...but it went over really well!
