Horsing Around

Now we are practicing to present the drama, "The Trojan Horse."  All the students have parts in the drama.  So, we are working to find an audience.  This week, we made costumes.  The students who are soldiers went outside to paint their shields.  They used cans of spray paint.  The students were worried that Ms. Minihan would spray graffiti on the side of the building.  So, they didn't let her touch the paint!

Many of the students made wreaths to wear on their heads.  Ms. Macdonald helped us.  We had such a good time.  Everybody loves the camera.  We took a lot of pictures.  You can see how much fun we were having.
