Penguins! Penguins!

Books

Penguins! by Liz Pichon: Some hilarious and amazing penguin photographs show up on a camera after it has been dropped into the penguin's habitat at the zoo.

Little Penguin by Patrick Benson: Pip wonders why she's such a little penguin. She swims in the ocean and makes friends with a little sperm whale named William.

Flannelboard poems:

Six little penguins off an iceberg did dive,
One bumped his beak and then there were FIVE.
Five little penguins swam the ocean floor,
One saw a whale and then there were FOUR.
Four little penguins spun around, wheeeeeee!
One spun off and then there were THREE.
Three little penguins with nothing to do,
One went fishing and then there were TWO.
Two little penguins having lots of fun,
One fell off and there there was one.
One little penguin, when the day was done,
went home to sleep and then there were NONE.

Song: (To the tune of "I'm a little teapot")
I know a little penguin
Who sat on some blocks.
He swam in the ocean
and climbed on some rocks.
He snapped at a seagull, he snapped at a seal
He snapped at a fish--
Oh, what a meal!

If you're a penguin and you know it (To the tune of "If you're happy and you know it")
If you're a penguin and you know it, flap your wings (flap, flap)
If you're a penguin and you know it, flap your wings
If you're a penguin and you know it and you really want to show it
If you're a penguin and you know it, flap your wings.

(Other verses are waddle your feet; bite a fish)
