Blossoming Artist and 1st Grade Summer Show

The talented first grade put on a wonderful performance.  This years theme was "How does your garden grow".  if you look closely you can see Lola on stage on the right doing a Hoe Down.

 

 

The first graders worked hard to make their original works of art to have a successful art show.  She did a collage of a tree and said it reminded her of the collages by Romare Bearden.  We attended an exhibit of his work last month.  Way to make that connection Lola!

Ballet Recital 2014

Our little ballerina practiced very hard this season for this years performance.  One slight distraction but otherwise a wonderful performance!

Anchorwoman, i mean girl

Lola took a drama class this semester and really loved it.  She was cast as an anchorwoman and the plot thickens when an up and coming weather girl wants the coveted anchor position.

Reading has long been a love of Lola's...remember the crib scene where she is reading to her dolls?

At 6 years old she has managed to move past the easy readers, 1st, 2nd grade readers and on to chapter books!  Great job Lola!   I'm so proud of you!

Smyrna Christmas Tree Lighting

 

 

Teasley's First Grade Class w as asked to sing at the annual Christmas Tree Lighting.  Lola is on the 2nd row and is getting blocked a bit by the first row.  If you can find Preteka who is wearing a pink head band to the right of Ms. Chase, Lola is standing just behind her on the left.
