Concert- The Wiz

Finally the time has come.


Your last primary concert. Enjoy every second of it.


Read and reflect on the following quotation from a German tennis player.


"As long as I can focus on enjoying what I'm doing, having fun, I know I'll perform well"


What does he mean?
How can you connect it with your performance in the school concert?

Click

This a summary of the story. Hope you enjoy them!




Keawe, a poor Hawaiian fisherman, falls in love with Kokua, a young girl of royal blood. Her father refuses to let him marry her, though, unless Lopaka can bring him two feather cloaks from a rare bird. While searching the mountains for the bird, Lopaka encounters a dying priest of Pele who sells him a wishing bottle in which Kono, the god of the volcanos, is confined. The priest warns him of the dangers of the bottle: if he dies still owning it, he will be damned, and the only way to get rid of it is to sell it for a price smaller than was paid for it. Keawe agrees and wishes to be rich, then marries Kokua and sells the bottle. All is well until Keawe contracts leprosy. To get rid of it, he must acquire the bottle again, and he is forced to buy it for the smallest coin of the realm! To save her husband's soul, Kokua is ready to sacrifice herself by buying the bottle for a smaller French coin. Fortunately, a wicked sailor appears with a still smaller Chinese coin and becomes its final owner when the bottle is lost at sea. Keawe's wealth vanishes, but he is happy to be with Kokua.

Concert Rehearsal

Dear all,


In almost 26 days, you will be performing your last concert in primary school. Therefore, you need to learn the lyrics of the songs to be able to sing loud and clear. You need to show commitment, enjoyment, a positive attitude and an excellent disposition when you are rehearsing so that you all excel in your performances.



Mahatma Ghandi once said:


"You might be the change you wish to see in the world" I would adapt it to this situation in particular and say:

"You might be the change you wish to see in the concert"



What do you think??

Poem shared by a peer



Hugo P from 6C brought Roald Dahl's poem collection called Dirty Beasts (1983). It includes nine poems telling of the unusual exploits of unsuspecting animals, except for Tummy Beast which is made up.



Do you remember any other books written by this author? When did you read them? Which one did you enjoy the most?



Click here and read Tummy Beast. Why do you think I chose this poem?
