Tomorrow is our third PTA performance of the year, which is fitting since our fantastic third graders are putting it on! Come out to GFAA at 7:00 sharp to watch our girls and guys sing, dance, and act their way through "Get in the Game!" You'll see cheerleaders, golfers, soccer players, and maybe even a skateboarder or two. They've worked really hard and Ms. Becker, Ms. Trammell, and myself can't wait to see it pay off.
And don't forget about the upcoming Winter Showcase! 7:00 on Tuesday, December 6th at the SGPHS Theatre!

Puppets, Galore!
Recently in theatre, lots of classes have been learning about puppets. Puppets are a great way to break even shy kids into acting- it's easier to start with your "puppet" talking in front of the class instead of you. We've been practicing reading from scripts and have even written some of our own! A big favorite in all grade levels has been making our own puppets. I have seen some of the most creative things! Here are a few great examples below:
In other news, it's college week here at GFAA and for that I can't help but say, SIC 'EM BEARS!! (If your student comes homes yelling that someday, I'm probably to blame.)

Announcing the 1st Annual GFAA Winter Showcase!
The first ever GFAA Winter Showcase will be held at the new SGPHS theatre on Tuesday, December 6th at 7:00. Who will be performing at this showcase, you ask? Here is the rundown of what you'll see:
*Great jazz dancing and maybe even a kick line from our All Star Dancers
*Some awesome hip hop from the All Star Crew
*Wonderful singing and dancing from the Showstoppers
*A really great dance number performed by 3 of our Monday after-school clubs
*aaaandd....
There will be full grade-level performances by 1st, 3rd, and 5th grade!
These grades will be performing an act they will work on in music class with Ms. Becker or dance/drama class with me. They should have an information sheet go home with them sometime this week telling you all the details! We are so excited to be including as many kids as possible with this show. Finding more opportunities for our Fine Arts students to perform is always a good thing!
Oh, and don't worry Kinder, 2nd, and 4th- we haven't forgotten about you! These other three grades will perform in our Spring Showcase at the end of the school year.
So mark your calendars now- 7:00 on Tuesday, December 6th at the SGPHS Theatre. We want a packed house there to support our all stars!
