Higher Things - Day 3

Day Three at Higher Things is much like Day Two, except that the routine is now easier, things are flowing a little better, and the kids are more excited (and tired!). Two breakaways again today, and I taught mine for the second time - which went better, as it always does. :-)  The kids also have a little more free time in the evening this last night, and are busy earning points for our tetramorph team.

One of the ways to earn points was in the Talent Show. Robert played a piano piece and Cyrus and Dan performed a rap written by Cyrus about the four tetramorphs! It really was quite good. The performance was a bit timid (hard to do in front of a lot of people and judges), but the judges gave them an honorable mention (aka 4th place) for the inventiveness of the rap, and with that, 50 points for our team. I must say, the level of talent was high and the competition stiff.
