Well, we've made it to the holidays. It's been a pretty hectic week. Monday was our concert dress rehearsal. The show was pretty long and between practising getting on/off the stage, practising our song, and working out the kinks in the show, it was a pretty long day. Tuesday was the matinee and evening performances. Our class also went swimming. I think the students were pretty tired when it was all over. I know I was. We finished up our last "ateliers" in between all of that. Wednesday was definitely a "Ketchup" day, with a little yoga thrown into the mix in the afternoon. We even got a math test done on measurement. "Finally Thursday came. The week seemed so long, probably as everyone was looking forward to a break. We did a little more "Ketchup" in the morning. We had a block where the students made some seasonal crafts and worked on their art. By the end of the day, the students were so excited that even a story didn't really do its usual magic of calming them.
I was at school for a while once the children left. With a little Christmas music playing, I prepared everything for when we get back in the new year: calendar, board, ateliers. We still need one more day of "Ketchup to get everything finished up but that will be a good thing to do on the first day back to get them back into the swing of things. Then it'll be back to the ateliers on the following day. Also, we're skating on the Tuesday back so hopefully everyone has skates ready. It'll be a busy start to the new year at school!
I HOPE EVERYONE ENJOYS A SAFE AND HAPPY HOLIDAY WITH THEIR FAMILY!
