Drama: Little drama is going great! Jaiden - bring a cute dress. I may have a dress-up dress for you, so we can compare Friday.
Older drama - You guys should be studying your lines at home. We only have 3 more practices until performance! I also expect costumes to be brought each week. Surfer guys - All you need is a pair of shorts, and t-shirt or tank top, and flip flops.
TKD - Practice forms at home! They are getting much harder. Our testing is May 9th and pictures are April 25th!
Tenets of Tae Kwon Do (learned so far): Courtesy, Integrity, and Perseverance. Perseverance: Never give up! We will learn two more tenets in the next couple of weeks.

Updates April 5, 2008
Drama: We worked a lot on the plays yesterday. Just remember: Bring costumes and props EVERY week.
Older drama students: I would like all of my older students to read the story of Jonah from the Bible and tell me some things from the story that they liked, or thought interesting.
Practice, practice, PRACTICE your lines! Everyday ;-).
TKD: I am working with Master Steve for another testing date this April.
Our first Tenet was Courtesy (respect for instructor, students, building, etc). We learned Integrity this past Friday. It means being able to know right from wrong, and choosing to do whats right.

I hope everyone had a great Spring Break last week!
Lil' Drama: We missed Jaiden yesterday! Costumes are NEEDED next week. Some characters have quick changes.. and we only have a few more Fridays to work on those. Props also need to be brought in. What I have made for my sisters is their own "Drama tote." It includes their costumes and all the props they need for their plays. The bag stays in the car that way we will always have it for rehearsals. If you need to know what exactly your child needs to bring.. please look at previous posts.
Older Drama: We missed quite a few people yesterday! Instead of rehearsing, the students worked on their own skits! COSTUMES and PROPS are needed next Friday. They were due in yesterday. If you need to know what those are, please look at previous posts. Costumes and props are to be brought in and used in rehearsals for the remaining Fridays. Also, no scripts in class! Please continue to practice those at home.
TKD: I hope you guys are liking your new forms! We are learning the 5 Tenets of Tae Kwon Do. Each week we will learn a new tenet. These need to be memorized for our next testing. This past Friday's tenet was Courtesy. It means respect for Tae Kwon Do, your instructors, your class mates, as well as the building we learn in. Please review this with your child(ren).

PHOTOS
Our class photo day is April 25th
Mary King, a homeschool student, will be the photographer. She is out looking for experience and this is a perfect opportunity!
The charge will be $5 per student, per class [If a students is in drama and tkd, the charge would be $10]. This includes individuals and groups. Drama students need to be dressed in their costumes, TKD students in your uniforms.
Mary will send me all her pictures and I will post them either on e-mail or on the blog. That way all you have to do is save the ones you want!
I do not need to have a head count.. but I beg that all students be present on this day. If your child(ren) plan on having pictures done, the $5 must be presented at the time of photos.
If you have ANY questions, please e-mail!
I will post reminders closer to the date.

Tuition Facts
Every week I have receipts for the previous weeks payments - Please come pick them up. I try to send them with the students, but they either forget or I see them in the folders the next week so it would be great if parents could run by and pick them up for me. (This also helps me make sure we are both on the same page with payments.. ) Thanks!
