School is nearing term end and as part of their final show, Roo's class sang a favorite from one of their earlier topics of study, Egypt.
Egypt, home of the pyramids,
Egypt, gift of the Nile,
Come let's take a trip
We're going down the Nile,
The longest river in the world,
It's bound to take awhile,
We're going to see the pyramids,
Built a long long time ago,
In the valley of the kings,
And the great Pharaohs.
The children wore book costumes they made, each giving a unique title to their book complete with a drawing on the cover. Roo (the tall kid in the back) titled his Rabbit Saves the Day. (Unfortunately I had a streamer hanging in my line of sight the entire performance.)
I had a chance to photograph some of the art around the room. Here is Roo's name at the start of the year, and now at the end. Prior, he used dots to aid his writing. The second is free hand. His drawing has progressed and now people are clearly people.
Here is a quoted response when asked the question "What do you want to know about Switzerland?" (Switzerland was a topic of study one month).
Art work from the Hawaii theme study, Roo on a surf board.
