At Home in a Tree

At Home in a Tree



Found online clip art patterns.  Used different layers of felt to assemble these.

Teacher Owl:  At school today, we will talk about trees. Who knows what trees are good for?

Robin:  Trees are great for birds to build nests in.

Teacher Owl:  Okay.  Trees are good for robins.  That’s all trees are good for.  School’s over.  It’s time to go home.

Caterpillar:  Wait!  Trees are good for more than that!  Trees are great for insects to live in, too.  And their leaves are tasty treats to eat!

Teacher Owl:  Okay.  Trees are good for robins and insects.  That’s all trees are good for.  School’s over.  It’s time to go home.

Squirrel:  Wait!  Trees are good for more than that!  Trees are great for storing our food.

Teacher Owl:  Okay.  Trees are good for robins, insects and squirrels.  That’s all trees are good for.  School’s over.  It’s time to go home.

Cow:  Wait!  Trees are good for more than that!  On hot summer days, trees are good to sit under.  Trees help cows stay cool!

Teacher Owl:  Okay.  Trees are good for robins, insects, squirrels and cows.  That’s all trees are good for.  School’s over.  It’s time to go home.

Robin:  Teacher Owl, where is your home?

Teacher Owl:  Oh!  I forgot!  Trees are a great place for owls, too!   We sit high in the branches and look for food.  School’s over.  Time to go to my home.  I want you to see my great tree home!
