Meredith's Trampoline Time!

Here's another quick movie from Meredith's gymnastic show!  

Meredith's Spring Gymnastic Show

This weekend Meredith had a gymnastics presentation.  She has been taking classes all year, and it was great to see her progress.  She really enjoyed swinging from the bars, bouncing on the trampoline, and jumping or flipping into the foam pit.  She was very excited and bouncy during the show.  I hope she will follow in my footsteps and do cartwheels everywhere!  I remember doing them behind my mom at the grocery store and off the diving board into the pool!  There was a point where I just HAD to do cartwheels all the time! Wish I still had that flexibility and strength!  We also watched a rhythmic gymnastics routine done with a ribbon, rhythmic gymnastics might be another class that Meredith would enjoy trying!   We will take a small summer break from gymnastics and start again in the fall.  The kids want to have time to 'enjoy summer' without many obligations.  Oh the days when I used to enjoy my summer laziness! 

Third Grade Play

The Third Grade at Corl Street finished up their studies of Africa by presenting 3 plays that they memorized and painted scenery for.  Jeffrey told us he would be a narrator for one of the plays, and I was excited to see all the kids perform.  I didn't know what to expect because Jeffrey didn't tell us a lot about what they were doing for the plays, so it was fun to see all the kids come out with different animal hats/headbands!

Jeffrey is a Giraffe!

Jeffrey and his Friend Ellis were Narrators for one of the Africa Plays.

Three 'Animals' make soup together during the play Jeffrey Narrated.

 The kids did a wonderful job, and it was great to see how well their parts in the plays suited their personalities!  All the 'Animals' were very well chosen.  Jeffrey told me that he really likes to speak into the microphone, he did a nice job speaking clearly.
