This is a public account (meaning anyone can follow it), but I will NOT "follow" your students. This means there can be no private messaging on this account--any comments I or your students make will be public as well.
I would like to use this platform to engage students, receive feedback from them, share a little about my life, and teach proper online etiquette.
Sixth Grade Classes
Scene Design
- This week, we are working on designing backgrounds for hypothetical shows (see photos below!
Costume Week
- Next week is Costume Week!
- For our costume design unit, students are to create a "Disneybound" costume (see example below) and wear it to school. A Disneybound costume is a costume made up of regular clothes from their closet (not a Halloween costume; no purchases are expected) that represent a character from a TV show, book, or movie.
- These can be as simple as wearing all black and being Batman or as complex as the photo of myself that I have attached.
- All they need to do is wear it to school one day next week! Dress code applies, but if they have a perfect hat, they may wear it in my class ONLY.
Field Trip
THANK YOU to our chaperons for the field trip! We had a great time! See photo below!
Musical Announcement
Ms. Bucklew and I will post results for the musical by next Friday. We are still interviewing students for crew positions. We have thoroughly enjoyed seeing your students audition!

Fifth Grade Classes
Peter Pan!
We have been hard at work on Peter Pan--we finished Act One this week!
- Research--we used stations to discover some background information about the play and the playwright
- Tableaux--we formed a still picture from Act 1, Scene 1 of Peter Pan (see photo below)
- Mirrors--we practiced being Peter Pan's shadow
- Video--we discussed flight onstage and watched some examples!
Huzzah Tribe
Huzzah Tribe had a wonderful performance! Thank you for being part of the tribe, and look for information about the spring tribe after winter break!
See photos of our outstanding actors below!
