Our students gave a wonderful performance of Freedom Bird from Thailand at the Freedom Assembly. We worked hard on orchestrating sounds inpsired by gamelan or khong wong yai playing pi-phat music to enhance our rendition of the story and the students learned all their words and their parts through the time honored oral tradition. Thanks to Ilana and Courteney who had to give up playing music to portray our bird and hunter. And thanks to Cole for bringing in his cymbal and borrowing a gong to help create music like that which is used to accompany shadow puppet plays. We hope to have pictures from Tory soon.
We had a test on the Bill of Rights today and most students did well.
To our generous families- Thanks for the books from the book fair:
The Sea of Monsters and The Titan's Curse by Rick Riordan.
Much appreciated.
We are studying angles in geometry. Sometimes we can confuse acute and obtuse angles. A way to remember is that cute things tend to be small things as well. An acute angle is the smallest type. A nice interactive site on this subject can be found at:
