9 December 2015 –
It's that time of year- for the IST Elementary Winter Show. This year's show is called Time Matters. (time matters referring to the time signature of the songs)
Ava is participating in the Elementary Choir:
Grade 4 got dolled up for "Rock around the Clock" song:
The grade 4 kids are belting out "Ugly Sweater". Half the grade 4 class was asked to bring ugly sweaters to school. Ava's might take the prize. Too bad I didn't get a close up photo of her! It's bizarrely crotched sweater that looks like it jumped straight out of the 1970s (I apologize to those folks I might have offended).
I know I'm biased but out of all the songs from all the grades I think the Ugly Sweater song was MY FAVORITE!!! I love how they weren't afraid to sing out at the top of their lungs…and sing with enthusiasm and emotion. Usually when the kids move up to the higher grades they tend to be more shy when it comes to singing – they get super quiet and difficult to draw out and listen to. Well, NOT THESE KIDS. They weren't afraid to let it all out! Ava was naturally a ham and playing the role.

The finale was called "This Holiday" with all the grades participating:
Kiddos, thanks for a fun Wednesday evening! It's been a blast!!!
