Nutcracker Fun

The week after the concert we focused on music from The Nutcracker.
We listened to music, analyzed the form, moved to the music, rode candy cane horses and played with the parachute.  The parachute activity was LOVED by all grade levels K-5.  One second grader was so excited to see the parachute stick to the ceiling that he literally "jumped for joy."  In his excitement he jumped with hid knee right into my stomach -- caught that one on video.  There was a lot of shouting in my room this week, so I feel a little bad for the class next door.  But hey, what can you do?  Parachutes are REALLY exciting!!!
