Performance

Today we started singing with Nicola. Nicola gave us a couple of singing warm-ups. Then we had to freeze while she went and got the paper with the lyrics to the songs. We were going to be singing...  Taller, Stronger, Better by Guy Sebastian and Don't Stop Me Now by Queen. 

We listened to them about three times for each song and we all slowly started to sing along with it. While we were listening to the songs we were correcting the mistakes and writing anything that we think needed to be on there. They are both quite good songs. We glued in the songs into our books so that we all have a copy of the words. I wasn't too sure if I wanted to be in the performance group but now I know I definitely do want to be in that group. I can't wait until next term.

Performance group

Today for my passion project I started to do Performance with Nicola. Last year at school I was in the drama group so I thought it would be fun to do this. We played about 3 drama games before we did our auditions. Our first game was HASH. H is for happy, A for angry, S for sad and H for happy again. For 1-5 we had to say that number in a happy voice. If it was from 5-10 it was an angry voice. From 10-15 we had to say it in a sad voice and 15-20 in a happy voice again. We had about ten minutes to plan out what we were going to do. I decided to do some acting, but I forgot about the time limit. We had to makeup something from thirty to sixty seconds long. Mine was about ten seconds long but everybody else got in.
