Every year my class and my mom's class do the Dance Festival together. We have to choose a song and choreograph a dance for the kids to perform in front of the entire school. Every class has to participate and I HATE IT! I dislike it so much because I cannot dance and I feel so stupid. My mom can't dance either. So this year I asked our music teacher who is awesome to help us with the dance. She was amazing and our dance came out super. The pressure was completely lifted. I have no problem following along once the moves are created. So we would have a mini lesson once a week learning the moves and then the other 3 practices I would drill the kids while my mom taped them or yelled at them to get where they needed to go. Not an easy feat with 42 4th graders and 1st graders but they worked it out and it was awesome. We did the song "Rock This Town." And to celebrate we threw a surprise thank you party for our fabulous music/dance festival teacher Ms. Mickelson. I made cupcakes and drew the music notes for the chorus of Rock This Town on them. I figured out where to download the music from and then created the cupcakes. Not easy either when I know zero about reading music but I just tried to copy exactly how the notes were. In the end they were delicious!
