Two of my students anticipating their turn!!
My students looked AWESOME, INCREDIBLE…to say the least. They were nervous. We made our way to the stage and found seats near the front. Grade by grade, kids were performing various traditional Christmas songs, plays and poems. Grade 1…grade 2...grade 3...then finally came our turn…GRADE 4!! I cheered them on…gave them a pep talk, and off they went to line up. The music started and the show began. I was amazed. The dancing, the coordination, everything came along magnificently. Kids in the audience were clapping to the beat, parents were stomping their feet. I was a proud teacher!! When the music stopped……the kids were pleased and happy with the results. I gave them all high fives and told them they were awesome!!
Tomorrow is the big night. Tomorrow is when the sky will be dark, the lights will be aimed brightly, and the night will be filled with an excitement we have all been looking forward to….I will tell you all how it goes!!
