The Christmas Concert will be here before we know it!  I have been looking for music to suit each grade level, and I found the PERFECT song for the 6th graders....I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas... Mommy and Daddy are mad... I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas.... cuz I ain't been nuttin' but bad.  Haha!!  All in good fun, of course.  Click on the link below to watch a short cartoon version of this song!

Israeli Dance

The 5th-8th graders recently learned an Israeli Dance called "Hora Medura."  Or "Hora of the Campfire."  You can watch one version of this dance being performed here!  This version is a LOT more complicated than the one we did in class!!
