Spring Program 2014

This past week has been busy, busy, busy with the girls participating in three different performances. This post and two following will tell you all about them.  First up, the EMES Spring Program.

This year's program had a fun theme that started at the beginning of U.S. history and had songs from each major time period up through the 1960s. Sophie participated in a colonial dance and got to wear a cute little bonnet.

She also sang a very long song with the kindergarten and first graders about what the settlers brought with them called "When I Came Into This Land."

Hannah was a 1920s flapper girl and did the Charleston with her class. This was a lot of fun to watch!

They sang some great classics from the 60s such as "Blowin in the Wind" and "We Shall Overcome," but both girls' favorite was "Surfin' USA."

I absolutely loved the theme for this concert, and both girls learned a lot about our nation's history in the process of preparing for this program. Thanks and kudos to Mrs. Anderson!
