Brown Owl and the Bee Hive - BUNDLE

Play a game of hide & seek AND practise a simple verse from my rhyming picture book 'Brown Owl and the Bee Hive'.Step 1) Colour, cut and stick the bees onto pegs.N.B. If the children want to keep their own pegs after the game, write their names on them too. If you are creating a game for the class to use regularly, this is not necessary.Step 2) Go outside and hide the bees by pegging them onto plants, grass, trees or anything you can find!Remember to count the pegs first AND define which area of the garden you are playing in, or your could end up looking for the bees for hours!!!Step 3) Everyone says the verse together:Bees are buzzing in the grass, bees are buzzing in the air,Bees are buzzing here, there and everywhere!The children then run off and look for the bees.My children like to peg them onto their clothing so that their hands are free for looking.Step 4) Once all the bees have been found, take it in turns to hide them and play again!Extension: Ask the children where they found the bees! In the grass / in the flowers / in the trees etc.Have fun reading and rhyming with Brown Owl and the Bee Hive!www.readandrhyme.at

If you print two sets, they double up as a game of pairs too.If someone gets three pictures in a row, they shout LINE!If they get all nine pictures, they shout BINGO!I like to embed each word in a sentence so that the children are exposed to as much language as possible.

Encourage children to look at their surroundings with this Brown Owl's spotter's list!Spotter's lists also introduce new vocabulary and can stimulate conversation which leads to acquistion of new knowledge, e.g. This blossom is white. What kind of tree is it? Where can we look for ladybirds? Do all birds sing the same?This activity can be done around your school or home. All you need is to print the sheet and take a pencil with you. If you spot something on the list, tick it off/cross it out/circle it.How many objects can you find? Can you find the TOP SPOT? (in this case it's a ladybird).Extra: Colour the objects exactly as you find them.N.B. Use the version without the written word to teach other languages too!I hope you have fun learning English with Brown Owl!P.S. Brown Owl is the main character in my rhyming picture book series ‚Read and Rhyme with Brown Owl‘. For more information visit www.readandrhyme.at
