The top picture is from a kindergarten perfomance the kids put on. The poem below that is what she recited for a grade in her class. Everyone in the school had to recite a poem, and the top two kids of each class went on to recite for the school. She was one of the kids selected from her class! She practiced hard and did an excellent job. She spoke loudly, didn't wiggle, and made great eye contact during the times I saw her rehearsing. I asked her if she was nervous when she got up to say it and she said no, not at all. She likes public speaking and she says it's easy. What a great gift to have; I still blush when I have to talk in front of people! Her original poem was about basketball, but the teacher didn't allow it because it had one slightly inappropriate line in it. Oh well.... She didn't win for her grade, but I'm still very proud of her for doing her best.
She also got an art award saying that some of her artwork is on display at the district's instructional center. We're going to swing by there next week to see what it is, because she had no clue one of her art pieces got chosen.
