I took this week’s Flannel Friday from my new favorite storytime resource
Ready-To-Go Storytimes by Gail Benton and Trisha Waichilaitis
Five Little Coyotes
One little coyote howling at the moon, along came a friend and joined in his tune
(Put up first coyote, and then repeat with 2, 3, 4, 5 coyotes.)
5 Wild Coyotes watch an owl soar, one ran after it and then there were 4.
4 Wild coyotes sniffing at a tree, one chased a mouse and then there were 3.
3 wild coyotes where the clover grew, one chased a mouse and then there were 2.
2 wild coyotes sitting in the sun, one went for a drink and then there was 1.
1 wild coyote howling at the moon, he went to sleep ’cause the sun would be up soon.
Katie is hosting, so check out the Round Up!

Your coytotes are great!
I’ve done a Five Coyotes flannel board with this song: http://www.nancymusic.com/Coyotes.htm
(I cheated and used clip art coyotes – and a flannel moon)
The children loved howling along!

I really like the concept of buliding up to five and then down again – and love the coyotes, of course. AAARRRROOOOOO!!!!!
