Talent Show

Yesterday was our school's talent show. We set up chairs outside in the shade after school. Students, parents, and teachers all sat down and sweated as we watched children display many talents. There were skits, songs, poetry, and dancing. The kids were so cute. In all reality, the talent show seemed to me to be rather thrown together at the last minute in order for one of the classes to show what they had been doing (a dance class). But to the kids, this was such a big deal. Two little first graders wrote a song. After school they changed into their nice dresses as if this were a concert. And they were all nervous and what if I forget the words. Even the older kids were quite excited and nervous about their performances. But they all did spectacular jobs, especially the dance class. And it was very nice to see some of the kids, who you would never know would feel so at home on stage, just hamming it.
Well, I've got a lesson to get ready for. I'll write more later I guess.
