Edison and Charlotte's Concert

Edison and Charlotte had their end of the year concert last week. It was really awesome that their classes combined for this one and that they were so close together in the risers. Edison was with his good friend Grayson and Charlotte was next to her friend Keira. They did a tour de force of music: singing / playing the recorder / playing the Orff instruments / and even dancing the Pata Pata.



 Edison's really found his groove playing the Orff instrument - like a big marimba.
Following the concert, the kids classes put on a Wax Museum. They had each researched someone from history, then they wrote speeches about them and acted as a figure in a wax museum - when visitors came and pressed their button, they had to come alive and give their speech. Charlotte was Hillary Clinton and  Edison was Thomas Edison.
  
Keira as Helen Martini the zookeeper and Rosalie as Sarah Edmonds who disguised herself as a man to fight in the Civil War.

 Edison with Alex - aka "The Boss" Bruce Springsteen.
