Nelson yes Ashley Nelson is sick with
the chicken pox too oh my we have many
students getting sick with the chicken
box so the rest of us need to be very
careful the school nurse has asked all
the teachers to show this short film
about chicken pox so I want you to
please pay close attention Ashley please
turn on the projector
hi boys and girls I'm back to B and
we're going to talk about a very very
common childhood illness today called
chicken pot its fancy name is called
varisella it's a disease that most
children will get before they grown up
and it's one that's very very common the
most important thing to remember when
you get chicken PO is it will start off
as a little red rag and then all of a
sudden those little red spots will
become blistered and then all of a
sudden the blisters will scab over like
you scratched yourself and then they'll
get very very
ity the most important thing to remember
about chicken pox is that it is very
contagious and that means that it
spreads very quickly from one little boy
or girl to another so you've got to stay
apart and not be around anybody who has
chicken P or else you're very likely to
catch
it okay now someone tell me what the
doctor say we should do if we know
someone who has chicken pugs gerbert um
yes ma'am you should stay away from them
until they get well so that you won't
get sick too thank you for listening so
well gerbert you're right we should stay
away from someone with the Chicken Box
until after they get well
someone tell me what the doctor say we
should do if we got chicken Pock
ourselves Ashley we shouldn't go near
anyone else because they might get sick
by being close to us good Ashley we
should stay away from others if we have
the chicken pox so that we will not get
them sick it is a very contagious
disease okay now boys and girls it is
time to practice our play onest a
everyone get into their custumes and
places
please gerbert Glen Paul will no longer
be able to play on his a since he's home
with the chicken pox would you like to

honest AE lines yes ma'am I will great

your favorite wacky paint brush me Vinny
brush you know what if you woke up one
Saturday morning and said hey Mom I'd
really love to go to the zoo and she
says don't be silly it's raining outside
and what do you think you would do well
if it was me your friend Benny brush I'd
say stay at home and make your own Zoo
it's a lot of fun and I'm going to show
you how it's easy if you just try it now
look down here we got magazines you got
a shoe box you got markers and some
scissors and if you look at my Zoo you
can see how I did it all I did was take
the shoe box and I ripped the sides out
and I laid it out flat then I got me a
marker and I drew me some squares in
there for cages and made some lines down
there for some bars see how I did that
and then I got some old magazines of
course you want to ask your mom for that
first and she'll find you some old ones
and you take your scissors Thum through
there it's almost like you're hunting
for animals and when you see an animal
you cut it out with your scissors and
you play with it and you hold it down
there where you got the cave you can
make them move around and you know what
else you can do you can cut other little
pieces of cardboard and make them stand
up like these Bears over here how do you
like that really get fancy it's a lot of
fun and you can stay in the house on a
rainy day and play like you're at the
zoo just try it hey got to go this is
