A Preschool Storytime: Friends

I visited a local elementary school who has a preschool program as a part of the school.  I visited a group of three or four classes in the morning, and then returned that afternoon and presented another one to a group of three or four smaller classes.  What I'm going to list is a sort of combination of what I did each time for the theme of friends!
