Rock Opera

I was given free tickets to a rock opera and I took my 11th and 12th graders last night. It was the East Village Opera Company from New York City and they perform pieces from various operas in a rock style with a band and everything. It was quite an experience! It sort of felt like American Idol opera, which isn't really my thing, but my kids and I got a big kick out of it. It kept us entertained for a few hours and gave us lots to talk about on the bus ride back.

Here are my kids and I in my classroom before we left. For me, the best part was getting to spend some time with them outside of school. They are fabulous kids and I really like them a lot.
