"Oklahoma!" February Schedule is POSTED!

Let the countdown to opening night officially begin! I have posted the "Oklahoma!" rehearsal schedule for February on the right side of this blog. Please check it out and email me & Mrs. Barber if there are any conflicts!
The show is only a few weeks away now, so we're excited to keep working on songs and scenes, along with acquiring costumes, sets, lighting, and sound. This show is going to be amazing, and the students have already put in lots of focused and creative effort. 
Please come and see the show February 22nd & 23rd!

Cultural Arts: SHAKESPERIENCE & The Reluctant Dragon

Shortly after returning to school, we had a lively visit from some wonderful actors who are part of Shakesperience Productions, a theater company in Waterbury, CT that brings stories to life. 

This year the actors from Shakesperience performed a play called "The Reluctant Dragon" based on the familiar tale of St. George and the Dragon. 

This story introduces the audience to several positive character adjectives that we also strive to achieve and practice here daily at TCS including respect, responsibility, and kindness. The play also teaches us all a lesson about environmental sustainability because the dragon in the story plants and protects trees. There were even some mathematical problems to solve and the actors used different sized blocks to create the appearance of a cave, a village, and trees.

 

THANK YOU for visiting us again this year, Shakesperience! Your kindness won't soon be forgotten! 

Happy 2014!

Welcome Back, Everyone!

Thank you to all who participated in the Holiday Program back in December. It was a wonderful morning full of joy, music, and holiday cheer, and I am so proud of all the students who performed!



Now that we are back, Mrs. Barber and I will be diving into rehearsals for "Oklahoma!" and we're so excited to start working with the 7th & 8th graders.
