Ceramic Studio















My good friend, Lucy N, is getting married. For her "hen do" we went to Studio Ceramic. I had so much fun.....I had to share it with the Kids! Cody's on holiday for Eid. Eid ul-Adha "blessed festival". So to greet someone you would say " Eid Mubarak"! (Eid refers to the occassion itself, Mubarak means blessed.) We spent a couple of hours painting our ceramic of choice. Devin did a great job! He went from painting his ceramic to painting himself. At the end of the session they all did a great job. Afterwards, we had a late lunch at Johnny Rockets. We were celebrating Qosai birthday a month early. This was just to get them to dance to "Stayin' Alive" by Bee Gees

RVIS - Percussion Jam 2010










The Fifth, Sixth and Seventh graders performed a "Percussion Jam"! A percussion instrument is any object which produces a sound when hit with an implement, shaken, rubbed, scraped, or by any other action which sets the object into vibration. The term usually applies to an object used in a rhythmic context or with musical intent. Wikipedia   The different grades performances were awesome! Devin enjoyed it so much, he was mesmerized! For the grand finale, the girls performed "We will Cup You"! I for some reason didn't take any pictures of the finale. However, they all sat in a line and slammed the cups to the rhythm of "We Will Rock You" by Queen. At the end, they threw the cups to the audience. Good Job, RVIS!!
