3rd Grade Program: You Belong Here
Our 3rd Grade Program this year is based on the book: "You Belong Here" by M.H. Clark. This is a story about belonging no matter where or who you are. All of 3rd Grade will be performing this program at Crossroads in the gymnasium on March 19th, 2024, at 6:30PM. This program was created using the music methodology, Orff Schulwerk. This means that 3rd Grade students have leadership over multiple parts of the show: singing, dancing, narrating, and playing instruments. It also means that the students have created many of the parts you see in our pieces on their own, therefore, being active music-makers.
