Final School Performance

On the last Thursday of school the students gave a performance for parents and guests. They had been working on songs and skits for several months, but during the days leading up to the performance we had practices almost every day. Michelle did a great job at teaching them some very difficult songs including "Mom Sense" (everything a mom would say in 24 hours), and "I Am"(a Christian Rap). Also, the girls sang "A Spoonful of Sugar," the boys sang "Heigh-Ho," and everyone sang "So Long, Farewell" at the end of the program. Students didn't just memorize the words to the songs; they also had to learn choreography for each one and find costumes. It was a lot of work, but they did a wonderful job. In addition to the songs there were two school skits, verse recitations, flute and recorder playing, and the giving of awards. Also, Michelle and I prepared a special skit for the enjoyment of the students. She was the hands and I was the body in "The Morning Routine" skit; it was great fun and the students loved it, especially the part where I tried to put on makeup.
