Story Time Verses

Attention  Getter- Wise Owl

A wise old owl sat in an oak.

The more he heard, the less he spoke.

The less he spoke, the more he heard.

Why aren’t we more like that wise old bird

The Wise Owls (can use this to gather the circle before the above attention getter)
One wise owl sitting in a tree
Hooted to another, "Come sit with me."
Two wise owls sitting in a tree
Hooted to one more, "Come let's be three!"
Three wise owls sitting in a tree
Hooted to a fourth, "Join our family."
Four wise owls sitting in a tree
Hooted to eachother, "come quietly."
Now all the wise owls sat as still as could be

While the wise old Owl shared his great story.

Attention  Getter- Wise Owl
Be quiet your faces, be still everyone

Fix deeply on me your eyes

And out of my mind a story will come

That is old, and lovely and wise

Anything can happen

In a fairy tale or rhyme

When you say the magic words
