After we read Good Night Owl a few times I assigned the kids to be one of the animals and make the noise in the story. I gave them a printout of the animal they were and they colored it in the correct color. I had them tape the animal to a popsicle stick and wrote the sound on the stick. We invited the other k classes over and acted out the story. I hung a big tree made out of paper from my whiteboard and had the student that was the owl sitting on the carpet already. Then as each animal is mentioned in the book a student walked over to the carpet, help up their animal on a stick and made the sound two times. Then they sat quietly on the carpet under the tree. In the end of the story we turned off the lights, when the words in the book say darkness fell. All of the animlas made their sound one last time at the very end when it mentions that they all wake up. They really enjoyed putting it on for the other classes and it was easy prep!
