Poetry Party:
We felt that because we are memorizing three different songs that trying to do Poetry Party may be difficult. We will start poetry party after the concert. I have asked the students to practice reading the words out loud and over enunciate the words. It will probably sound really weird but it will help them later on.
Wangari Musical – Feb. 8 and 9.
We are splitting the school in half according to their last names. If your child’s last name begins with a letter between A and L, they will be performing on Wednesday night. If you child’s last name begins with a letter between M and Z, they will be performing on Thursday night.
Some of the students were saying that they were not coming to the musical. I would appreciate an email letting me know if you child cannot attend their night. Thank you
