The theme for this month in Roo's class has been outer space and the United States of America. Once again, the children and their teachers gave an amazing performance with the best yet of home made props, hand painted wall size backdrops included. They've learned of America's history by studying the culture of Native Americans, Cowboys, Inventions, and America's exploration of space. The show included:
a Native American rain dance (my favorite!),
around a camp fire,
a cowboy song and a song about inventions,
and the grand finale, a personalized version of the song "Ground Control to Agent Tom". The astronauts stepped from their shuttle while the teachers sang the main chorus.
As he stepped from the shuttle Roo did a good rendition of an astronaut walking on the moon where there is no gravity by slowly teetering from one leg to the next with his arms widely afloat. I guess the time he and Ryan spend watching YouTube clips of astronauts is time well spent!
