I am writing this post days after the fact, so this is probably not the exact story time I presented on Friday. But it's still pretty close. The theme was trees, because it was Arbor Day.
Opening Song: Hello, how are you?
Rhyme: Blue is the Lake
Book: Fall is Not Easy by Marty Kelley (1998)
I read this in the Fall and got no real response to it. This time, the kids liked looking at the various patterns for the leaves and the adults got the punchline much more quickly than in October.
Song: One Seed by the Laurie Berkner Band
Song: Head and Shoulders
Book: We Planted a Tree by Diane Muldrow, illustrated by Bob Staake (2010)
This book is kind of sappy, but the illustrations are big and bold. Most of the kids seemed interested.
Rhyme: Chickadee Tree
This was a new rhyme. The ending got no response, which I sort of expected. I might leave the ending off next time, and just do the three motions for the first three birds.
Song: I'm a Little Teapot
Book: Hello, Goodbye by David Lloyd, illustrated by Louise Voce (1998)
Flannel Board Song: Here Stands a Robin
I did this with three birds rather than five - and got a much better response.
Song: Chickadee
Song: Mr. Sun
Goodbye Song: We Wave Goodbye Like This
