Burnham Bunch: Owls

Owls (repeated from October 2011)

Read: Little Lost Owl by Chris Haughton and Wow! Said the Owl by Tim Hopgood.



Flannel board: Wow! Said the Owl display color-appropriate story-pieces as the story progress. Give children the chance to "shout" the color that coordinates with the text.



Craft: Owls

Need: Construction paper owl-parts cut from various colors. Glue sticks.
  • Prior to storytime, have your wonderful assistant cut many many many owl-parts shapes out of paper (thanks, Susan!). For example, we had blue circles, purple half-circles, yellow rectangles, "sunny-side-up" eggs shapes, and orange and pink triangles. (see finished product below)
  • Children will then paste together their an owl using all the colored owl-parts.
  • As we constructed our owls, I prompted the children to find their blue circles and glue them to their owl body, find the pink triangles and glue and etc.
