Christmas at the O.K. Corral - SUCESS!!

My first graders did a FABULOUS job Tuesday night in Christmas at the O.K. Corral.  I am sooooo proud of them!

We had almost 200 Cowboys and Cowgirls there!  Everyone had a "Rootin', Tootin' time"!!

Special thanks to all the parents & teachers who helped with the costumes, set, and rehearsal!  We could not have done it without you!! 



The Candy Cane Kid, Bubble Gum Bart, and Rosie the Reindeer, chillin' after the show!

Here is a video of the final song - Christmas Is O.K. It isn't great quality, it was taken with my husband's camera from the sound booth. But, you can get the idea!!

DVDs are still available for order! They are $15.

Sneak Peak!

The first graders will perform Christmas at the O.K. Corral Tuesday, Dec. 13. 

I decided to film one of the scenes to make staging the show a little easier.  My wonderful husband helped me out with filming and editing. 

Here is the video! 

The world premiere of "Santa Scene from Christmas at the O.K. Corral"!!!

March from the Nutcracker

This week in Music class we have been learning about the Nutcracker ballet!  Here is Mrs. Grigbsy's Kindergarten class doing a movement activity to March from the Nutcracker!  The filming is HORRIBLE.  But, you can get the idea.  The song has 3 sections:  A, B, & C.  We did a different movement on each section.  The song's form is A B A C A B A.

Nutcracker in Rsvl!

This weekend at Gardner Auditorium in Russellville, Arkansas!!

Tickets are $15 for adults and $5 for kids.  This is an AWESOME production and would be a wonderful experience for your family!
