The alligator is "entering" the elevator.

I can't believe what I see. Your #2 hands become eyeballs then become your jaw dropping because you've never seen an alligator getting in your elevator.

The handshape is called a "classifier" and signifies the alligator's head turning to look at you. My students always added an AFRAID sign with a vocal scream.

Most everyone knows the sign for PLEASE so I made the two together. PUSH shows you pushing the elevatory button. That's what the sign represents. Do not assume it is the sign for ALL "push" words.

How to sign the word NUMBER.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, the numbers 1-5 face this way, regardless of what some sign language books state. As you get higher in your counting, you will understand why.

You don't need to keep saying "I'm going up to the ___ floor". Thumb shows you're going up. That's the point to make.

Signing this in a singsong manner shows the rhythm to the audience.

Friend can be signed a few times to show the rhythm of the song.

This is one way to sign HOPE. There are other ways, but this was created for kids, it's more fun, and if you bounce it back and forth to show the rhythm, you're being Deaf friendly as well!

There are a few ways to show the teeth, but this one works well for kids. Or, you think you can incorporate the ALLIGATOR sign close to your mouth to represent his big teeth, you can do that. The problem with my students doing that was they would get too carried away and wind up signing ALLIGATOR again. I hated seeing the frustration, so we opted for the tapping of the canine teeth and showing how big THOSE were.

Yep, done multiple times to show the rhythm

No, the word popcorn is not in this song. I use this to remind the kiddos to pop up and down alternately during the interludes. One, it shows the rhythm, two, it gives them a way to be wiggly, have fun, and it truly is comical for me to watch. Some of the kids would stand on their toes whilst their neighbor would squat on the ground to the rhythm of the song; each trying to outdo each other.

The elevator rider's heart is pounding. The fist represents the heart. The hand in front represents your skin. Think cartoons, when the rabbit is in love and his heart is pounding and you see it pushing against the chest cavity.
