Enriched Learning Program

[rosyred45]

I just have GOT to get this out. Partly because I'm jealous that I didn't get it at school, the other part is that Mikey may have found his niche.

For the past 3 weeks, the kids have been excited about hte ELP we have here. There is

Leadership: they research an organization and try to make a difference positively that impacts the thoughts of hte children and help the org.

Art: submit a portfolio adn if you show promise, you get in to that

Physcomotor: The athletic type so those that aren't brainy but good at sports can be there.

Chorus: Tara is doing that one. Obvious as to what it is.

And last but no least
DRAMA: this year they changed it so that it will be one program, hopefully a musical.

Anyhow, Mikey was talking abou tit and talking about it, but never even turned in his permission slip----he lost it I asked him at the beginning of last week if he memorized his poem that they need to try out with. OF course not, what are you nuts, thinking he'd do something before it absolutely had to be done

As of last Thrusday when he started to read it, he didn't quite get it. Tara has her poem down, she just needs to slow down when she is reciting it.

Mikey gets up in front of hte SACC kids AND recites he poem :oI did have to prompt him. ONE TIME

I asked the teacher in charge if she could handle him. Well, she was Tara's teacher last year, and she said of course. "this might just be his niche" and when I told her this morning he got it down.

"Mikey must be a quick study"

Keep him in your thoguhts today and cheer him on for me :DThanks

Thank you Ladies.......I was really excited for him, now I'm getting nervous for him too ::)Although he doesn't get nervous unless TARA says she is

Thanks, I'll pass along the well wishes when I see him. He has about 5 minutes from teh time he gets to SACC to go to try outs.....shoot, gotta go write a note for him.

Yeah, we'll get it together one of these days

Thank you Marja, Mikey about knocked everyone over that was in the way coming back into the library.

Tara tried out last year and was in it, so it wasn't a BIG deal,....at least for her to show to everyone else, but I know inside she's VERY excited. It's all she has talked about for the past month.

There were 3 other boys that tried out. The kids said that the teacher told everyone since they were the best try outs she has seen for a long time, they were all going to be a part of it. Everyone except a couple of kids had their lines memorized, and those that didn't needed very little prompting.

Looks like a new beginning for my 2 ;D
