Busy Bee News 9.23.10

We have had another great week in the Busy Bee class!  The children are really getting to know the rules and routines as well as one another.  This week we’ve been talking about all of the things that we can do now that we’re getting bigger.  We read a couple of good books, Eric Carle’s From Head to Toe and Lorinda Bryan Cauley’s Clap Your Hands, that had us using good listening skills to follow directions.

On Thursday, we enjoyed getting together with the Shining Star class for our Bible story time.  This week’s story focused on all of the great things that God made, including us!

Hand Washing

At preschool, we really stress the importance of clean hands.  To encourage the children to wash for the appropriate amount of time, we sing the following song:

“Tops and Bottoms”

(to the tune of “Are You Sleeping?”)

Tops and bottoms,

Tops and bottoms,

In between,

In between,

All around your hands,

All around your hands,

Now they’re clean,

Now they’re clean!
