PRESCHOOL LANGUAGE AND MOVEMENT LESSON
By Miss Terry and Mr. Rich
This month's book is Buzz
by
Janet S. Wong. The hand rhyme is Behive (see attached). We will do the hand rhyme and act
out the story weekly. In addition
to these activities, we will be making bee puppets and banana shakes. Ask your child to do the hand rhyme with you and tell you
about the story. Happy Spring!
