Reader's Theater

Last night was Reader's Theater at school. Both first grade classes divided into four groups to read four stories - The Three Little Pigs, Why Bear Has A Stumpy Tail, Three Billy Goats Gruff, and the Little Red Hen. The kids were all dressed up and looking cute!



Xander was in the third group, and he was reading the part of Big Billy Goat Gruff. He was pretty nervous but he did a great job and everyone was able to hear his lines. My little star! (See the new video at the bottom of the page.)


Afterwards there were refreshments in the cafeteria. Xander loaded up on brownies and cupcakes, and visited with his friend Ava. On the ride home, Xander read me the entire story, making sure he pointed out which lines were his as he went through it.


Not sure what second grade has in store, but I know that the third grade puts on a little play every year. I can't wait for that! I hope last night's performance gave Xander a boost of confidence for any future performances.

How cute is that! Watch out, he's got the "stage" gene from his mom and grammy and uncle. Tell him we're proud of him, too. Love you, M.
