assembly

This week I have finished with an assembly at Day Break Elementary. I have been volunteer teaching there for a few months and giving these kids dance classes. I have noticed the difference of dance in the lives of these kids. The expressions on their faces and the excitement they portrayed was so intangible. I have had so much fun working with them, seeing them progress and learn with each new step. The assembly was very successful. I had no idea that I would have such an audience. There was the two grades to watch the kids, and all the kids parents came to watch. I was suprised at the support from the parents. I was grateful for their support and love for each child. It is so important as parents, friends and family memebers to show children how important they are and how important it is for them to stick to something they love to do. I believe they have inspired other children around them to do dance and to become a part of something that they may never have the chance to be apart of. The school was super supportive in the efforts of a dance class and being able to give the kids the opportunity to perform. Although as a dance teacher I wish the performance was perfect, it wasnt. But the kids did amazing on stage and they were ecsatic to be able to perform in front of an audience.
