This week at school was our English Festival for grades 3, 4, 5, and 6. The kids spent about two weeks preparing their acts for the festival. Students were allowed to choose their groups as well as their performances, in the context of the theme: theatre and music.
Believe it or not, this is Cinderella and her Fairy Godmother :)
Most of the groups in every grade chose to do skits, mostly fairy tales and obviously tailored to their age groups and English speaking levels. The large majority of them were terrible and the kids were not that into it, but there were some great acts. Hard to say it was worth the time and effort put into it, though…unfortunately.
It was a busy few weeks for us as teachers, and when it concluded this afternoon, we were VERY relieved and ready to get back to our normal lesson planning.
An incredible 6th grade rendition of Mama Mia...eat your heart out, Glee!
Some of the memorable skits including a boy dressed up as Cinderella, a 6th grade group’s rendition of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and an unforgettable final performance from a group of girls who did an incredible rendition of Mama Mia (see above photo) that put the Glee cast to shame!
