Mason's class has been working with their music teacher all year on making and putting on their own opera. He's been telling me about as they've gone on. They started at the beginning of the year by coming up with what they wanted the opera to be about. They learned that opera is a story with words put to a song. (or that's what Mason's definition is) Than they each got to help add different specific parts or things to the story. Their opera is called "Finding the Rhino." All these animal friends can't find their friend the Rhino so they go on a hunt. In the song it goes "we are looking for the Rhino, were could he be? Antarctica, Asia, my cousin Carter's house." His teacher pointed out that Mason helped with that part. Can you tell? Mason choose to be a dinosaur. I unfortunately waited to the last minute to find him a costume. Luckly we were able to borrow one the night before. YAY!! It was a little big, but he was so proud to be a big T-rex.
We loved watching him perform his opera. It was so cute. I have a video I have been trying to upload. I just haven't gotten it to work. I will hopefully get it up soon. Maybe Matt can help me.
