On Thursday April 18, Mrs. Smittle’s Kindergarten children will be performing plays that they wrote on the retelling of the Three Bears.
The first performance is at noon and the second performance is a 7 p.m. The
children listened to numerous versions of the Three Bears, then met in groups
and retold and wrote down their retelling of this classic story.
They made puppets and masks for their performances and also created posters for this
event. Families will be attending both performances.
