Nessun Dorma and Young Authors Day

So I promised that I would post a clip of my first graders performing our version of Nessun Dorma at our Young Authors Day. Unfortunately my camera's battery died right before we started so I had a friend use my iPhone to video the performance. She was sitting on the floor so you can't see all the little ones "asleep" on the stage. I guess she was afraid she would block some parents if she stood up. Oh well... It was cute and they were fantastic! I wish she had caught them announcing it so you could hear little Julian say "Puccini". I thought I was in Milan listening to him say it. Adorable :-)




Remember that Nessun Dorma will be coming in Peggy Bennett's new Playing with the Classics book due out very soon. I was introduced to this segment at the Music EdVentures conference inVancouver this year.

BTW- Young Authors Day is our version of a Literature Field Day. The whole day is dedicated to books, reading and writing. Activities include performances such as musicals, plays, story tellers and visiting authors. The day coincides with our Artfest where student art work is displayed throughout the school. Parents are invited to come view the art with their child.
