Artist in the School

After spring break we’ve had an artist in the school. Her name is Brenda Gorlick and she is a choreographer. She has been teaching us dances for our spring concert. So far she has taught us two dances. One is by The Bay City Rollers keep on dancing. And the other one is we will rock you. They’re both very fun. My favourite one is we will rock you. It’s fun and easy to learn. Of course we all know the beginning of the dance you stomp you’re feet and clap your hands eight times then do all the other dance moves. Keep on dancing is fun too. We learned that one pretty quickly. There are three moves the monkey jerk, the train and mashed potato pony. We all got numbered 1 to 3 and whatever number she gave us that would be the one we’ll be doing. And I heard we were going to have to be wearing funny outfits. And our music teacher said we might have to wear kilts. I probably won’t look good in a man skirt. Oh well I’ll just have to go along with it. But our music teacher is having trouble trying to find kilts. She said she wanted green kilts. Not red. I wonder why she didn’t want red. I’ll have to ask her later. I just remembered we also danced to thriller. That was fun to and I know we all know how it starts. You’re on the floor and then you come up and you act like a zombie then you walk like a zombie and you know the rest.  It’s really fun doing all of those dances and Brenda Gorlick does a good job on helping all of the classes learn how to dance. Even if they already know how to dance it’s always fun to learn new dances. Mrs. Gorlick is doing a good job and I say to her thanks for all the help. Our spring concert is on the 18th so we don't have a lot of time before show time. When I dance it makes me feel free. I enjoy dancing and I’m pretty sure a lot of people do to.  I can't wait to perform our dances. Here is a video of us practicing.
