Opera Iowa

Yesterday, Opera Iowa came to our school.  Before their performance, Mrs. Johnson's class got to attend a workshop with the performers. They went over the basic opera terms with us.  As a class we came up with a "Fractured Fairly Tale of The Three Little Pigs."  The different settings we came up with were: On Mars, grasslands, and in a volcano.  The volcano was on a grassland on Mars and the three little pigs were building their houses.  Then a bunch of angry peaches were wrecking their houses.  Everybody thought the mini opera was funny.
Later in the afternoon, the performers from our workshop performed The Three Little Pigs for the whole school.  Our favorite part was when one of the pigs picked his nose and went up to some of the little kids and flicked an imaginary booger on the little kids.  We really enjoyed the performance and are glad that Opera Iowa was able to come to our school.  Below are some pictures from our workshop and from the performance.

Reminder: Fun Night is Saturday, April 26 from 4:00-7:00 p.m.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Johnson's 3rd and 4th Graders
