Instructions
1. To ease the transition during arrival time, teach the children this song and
the sign language to go along with it.
Hello, hello, hello, how are you?
I'm fine, I'm fine, and I hope that you are too.
2. Practice the signs until the children are comfortable with them.
3. At arrival time, begin to sing and sign to the children as they enter the room.
Encourage any children who are already in the room to join in as you sing
and sign together.
More to do Home-to-School Connection: Send a sheet of the signs and song home with
the children so their parents can learn the song in sign language also.
