This morning Kristin and the Owls put their noses to the grindstone, or should we say the sewstone (yes? maybe? no? ehhhhh?) today. In preparation for the show, we have been working diligently to make sure that each facet of the play is seeing progress. Now many of the Owls have the basis for their costume done and are ready to add the details to bring their outfits to life!
This morning we also had another music candidate visit our school. We sang Old McDonald with her using a mystery bag, pulling out surprise animals to sing. She even pulled out the Philly Phanatic to join in for part of the song! We also did an activity where we got to try out most of the instruments in the music room. The candidate orchestrated the process of how the flowers grow through music, having rain start to fall (with rhythm shakers producing rain sounds), thunder growling to initiate a full storm (with drums producing thunder sounds), having rays of sun come out (with glockenspiels producing pleasant sounds for the rays of sun), all culminating in having seeds grow (with children moving with scarves to show the flowers rise).
