RHYMES/ SONGS:
Five Little Black Crows
Five little black crows
By the old barn door,
One flew home
And then there were four.
Four little black crows
By the old oak tree
One flew home
And then there were three.
Three little black crows
With nothing to do
One flew home
And then there were two.
Two little black crows
Out in the sun
One flew home
And then there was one.
One little black crow all alone
Through the day
He ate in the fields.

5 BLACK AND SHINY CROWS
(To the tune of 3 green and speckled frogs)
5 black and shiny crows — Sat on a scarecrow’s nose,
Eating the most delicious corn: YUM, YUM
Scarecrow, he shouted BOO! — 1 crow, away she flew,
Then there were 4 black shiny crows: CAW! CAW!

Song: Two Little Blackbirds
Two little blackbirds sitting on a hill,
One named Jack, one named Jill.
Fly away Jack, fly away Jill,
Come back Jack, come back Jill,
Two little blackbirds sitting on a hill,
One named Jack, one named Jill.

Two little blackbirds very, very still,
One named Jack, one named Jill.
Go to sleep Jack, go to sleep Jill,
Wake up Jack, wake up Jill,
Two little blackbirds very, very still,
One named Jack, one named Jill.
