Emmy's Third Grade Concert

Emily's third grade class had their musical presentation last night.

It was an amalgamation of all five third grade classes with a variety of the kids with speaking parts with the theme of the night being, "A Better You A Better Me." They sang and spoke about not cheating, telling the truth, being a good citizen etc.

Emily was one of the kiddos who had a speaking part and she did a fantastic job!! She spoke clearly, loudly and slow enough for people to understand what the heck she was saying, haha. When she first brought her part home and we practiced she would speak so fast that the words all jumbled together. Over the last month she kept practicing and last night I think she nailed it! I was so proud of her!!!

There were five songs and each class had a specific song where they were highlighted.

Hudson and Tori took the video camera my parents bought the kids down to the front and filmed the entire presentation. It was hilarious. I watched some of it last night and at the end of the first song the camera started shaking violently and I asked him what had happened and he said, "Oh, that must have been when i was clapping!" I had to laugh at that. He told us that he wasn't sure if he was supposed to put the camera in his lap or try to clap or not to clap at all. He added that he didn't want to be rude by not clapping. haha. That's my little man, always worried about what others are thinking. He did a pretty good job at his first movie attempt :)
