This morning the weather was amazing outside, so students spent time outside working on vocals and choreography with Ms. Lauren and Ms. Katie and learning their blocking onstage with Ms. Ann. They completely finished learning their first number and it already looks great!
Mr. Nico started pulling out students for their private voice lessons, working on their choice of music. Students were all smiles after their lesson, so make sure to ask them to show you what they learned!
After lunch, the students learned an awesome dance routine with Ms. Savannah, who is a dance captain at University of South Florida and a Rock Ridge alum.
Please make sure they are practicing their music and songs at home throughout the week. This will help them tremendously as we venture through the week together!
Thank you for a great day two!
