Preparation for the Pantomime and Oral Assessments

Today we spent the morning preparing our drama and poetry performances for the NZ Speech Board Oral assessments. Annie was beginning to panic because we have so much on and haven't found that much time for preparation. But we all got down to work today and achieved so much. All groups are well underway with their presentations. Thank you everyone for your effort and commitment today.

Wendy came in this morning and we had lots of children audition for key roles in the pantomime. Annie also held auditions for roles in the two scenes Room Ten are performing - The Cards and the Mad Hatters Tea Party. I bet that will give you a clue about our pantomime. Gilly and Annie also worked with us on our 'Card' dance. What brilliant ideas everyone had and we love our music - Robbie Williams ' Let Me Entertain You'! We are going to have lots of fun!

What a lot of 'English' and 'The Arts' objectives we worked on today, too many to write here but we shared them in class. Phew! A busy but fun day. Thanks to all our helpers today. We value and welcome you in our class.
