The Fish Are Gonna Bite!

The Fish Are Gonna Bite is a song by Mary Rice Hopkins and it goes perfectly with the story for April 11. I'm in Oregon this week so I had my daughter video tape me showing you the motions for this song...plus, I had to introduce you to Jace, my sweet little grandson! He turned 2 months on Saturday:) As you can see when I do the song, it's ok to make mistakes and just keep going! The words are printed for you and will be on the wall in the rooms. The CD is there, also. Have fun and enjoy!

Hippo Song Motions

This is a really fun song by Mary Rice Hopkins. It's fast and upbeat! You can google Mary Rice Hopkins to listen to her actual song or just wait till Sunday and the CD will be there for you. Watching this will help you with the motions. The kids LOVE this song!

Rascal in Action

Last Sunday we recorded the real deal with Rascal. As you can see it's a fun time with the kids!

Meet Rascal!

If you are volunteering this summer to teach our precious preschool children, this blog is for you!. My name is Jan Steiner and I've been helping Craig Fadel with the preschool curriculum by preparing all the materials for you. Thanks so much for loving the children! I find that having a puppet can help keep the attention of the children. Rascal will be your new best friend! Using a puppet is fun! I recorded a video to show you how to use Rascal.



For a sneak peak I'm also posting some photos of the 4/5's room from last week for you to see how things work.The first photo is actually at the end of the hour when we are waiting for parents to come. Play doh is always a hit! The other pictures show the children playing when they arrive. Sorry to say I didn't get shots of the "meat" of the morning: Songs, Story, and Craft.
