U is for Up Above And Down Below (Preschool and Two's)

Preschool Storytime:

Opening: Big Books


Book: Heads and Tails
*I was very impressed by how many of the animals the preschoolers were able to guess in this book!  The illustrations are just breathtaking inside and the clues that you read aloud are really good.  I didn't read all of this book because it is a little lengthy.


Fingerplay: 5 Little Airplanes: 
 Five little airplanes in the sky. Flying through the clouds way up high.
One little airplane, too tired to soar, landed on the ground and then there were four.
Four little airplanes in the sky. Flying through the clouds way up high.
 One little airplane flew too close to a tree. He landed on the ground and then there were three.
Three little airplanes in the sky. Flying through the clouds way up high.
One little airplane flew a loop-de-loop. He landed on the ground and then there were two.
Two little airplanes in the sky. Flying through the clouds way up high.
One little airplane tried to fly to the sun. He got too hot, so he landed, and then there was one.
One little airplane in the sky. Flying through the clouds way up high.
He got so lonely since no one was around. And joined his friends who were down on the ground.
*I had so much fun doing this with the preschoolers! My volunteer was behind me because I had five airplanes up on the puppet stage. As we zoomed around and fell down to the ground each time, she would remove an airplane. By the third time we repeated this, the preschoolers would say the lines before I could!

Fingerplay/Flannel: Little Cloud Hiding Game


Book: Cloudette
*I was a little hesitant to read this book, just because it is a little long to read at the end of storytime. But the message that this book portrays is astounding, so I had to read it! The preschoolers did really well with it, and I am very happy that I didn't pass it up.

Action Rhyme: Flying Fast, Flying Slow  (HAND OUT SCARVES)
Flying fast, flying slow       
Flying high, flying low.      
Swooping & swirling, I glide through the air.   
My special wings take me everywhere! 
*I handed out scarves and we danced around like airplanes!

I absolutely love the craft because it is 3-D! So many of the preschoolers put such care into placing each individual square onto the balloon, it was adorable!
