Motions for Everybody Here Has a Bucket
Everybody here has a bucket (Yes)...with closed fist, lift one hand up slightly form your waist like you are lifting the handle of a bucket, or pail of milk. http://www.babysignlanguage.com/dictionary/b/bucket/ On the word "yes" raise a fisted hand over your head and shake hand once (like you are knocking on a door) http://www.babysignlanguage.com/dictionary/y/yes/
Everybody's bucket holds light (Right)...use the bucket motion like above again. For "right" with close fist raise your hand from waist to front of you (people also use this hand motion when shouting hurray only it is a lower cut instead of an upper cut)
Add a little light here and a little light there...hands extend across your body and wiggle your fingers for "here". Do it in the opposite direction for "there".
Till everybody's bucket shines bright...Turn in a circle to the beat of the music and on the word "bright" start with hands at your side begin to raise them up and over your head, hands open. Make sure your hands cross in front of you when they get to about your waist on your way up over your head. They should be uncrossed by the time you get to the top and fingers wiggling.
We get it going with... this line goes by quickly and you need to be bringing your hands back down to your side form the previous step so it looks like you have made a circle with both your hands when these 2 steps are complete.
With a helping hand...look like you are shaking your one hand in front of your chest to someone who is not there.
Here I Am...Look like you are raising your hand to answer a question in the classroom.
It's so easy...step side to side to the beat of the music.
The other motions are:
With a friendly look...Point to your eyes with your index finger and middle finger in a v formation and then point them out http://www.babysignlanguage.com/dictionary/l/look_at/
That's all it took.... hands are palms up, wrists are bent backwards and arms are out to your side with elbows bent and close to your waist
With a big hello...like hello in sign language with right hand in an open position moving outward from the forehead, almost as if saluting http://www.babysignlanguage.com/dictionary/h/hello/
What do you know...with one hand the index finger touches the temple and then moves out (like you motion, "ah-ha")
Make a friend...sign language for friend by hooking the right index finger over the left which is palm-up and repeat in reverse http://www.babysignlanguage.com/dictionary/f/friend/
Come on in... use one hand like you are waving for someone to come to you.
