Puppet Show: T: Teacher J: Joey
J: Hey Teacher I found a baby chicken. It was saying cheep, cheep, cheep. They sound happy
T: I wonder why it is so happy.
J: It was because he just got out of a dark place. His cheeps mean “Oh look at the sun and pretty flowers and green grass.
T: He must have just pecked his way out of the shell (just like in this book (show book “What’s Inside” by Mary Garelick)
j: That is why he is saying “It is so good to jump and run and play.
T:You know that is just like Jesus when he rose from the dead. The whole earth shook and he broke out of the cave. Now we can sing and be happy – Jesus is Alive.
