More Pictures from a Great Day

Renaissance Fair/Art Show

This was my first experience with the Renaissance Fair/Art Show. What a great event! I was only sorry that I didn't get to sample all the delights, but if anyone has more pictures or videos let me know and I will post them here. In the meantime here's a few moments from the day.

"Greensleeves" -- for first grade

Hi First Graders. Here is a recording of "Greensleeves" the way we will do it for the Renaissance Fair (thanks to my friend, Michelle, for helping out with the vocal). Please start memorizing the lyrics and we will put it together with the dance this week.

Greensleeves

Alas, my love, you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have loved you well and long.
Delighting in your company.

Greensleeves was all my joy.
Greensleeves was my delight.
Greensleeves was my heart of gold.
And who but my lady Greensleeves?

Ah, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu.
To God I pray to prosper thee,
For I am still thy lover true.
Come once again and love me.

Greensleeves was all my joy.
Greensleeves was my delight.
Greensleeves was my heart of gold.
And who but my lady Greensleeves?

Culmination Song 1A - "I Will Remember You"

Hi Fifth Graders -- nice job this week as we began to put our partner songs "In My Life" and "I Will Remember You" together. For this week I want us to focus on memorizing the words to both songs. Keep in mind though we will only be using the chorus and the first verse of the Sarah McLachlan song. We will also be taking it slightly faster (to match the Beatles song).

Here are those lyrics. Mr. Alpert's class, you should have no trouble catching up. And welcome back. :)

I Will Remember You
by Sarah McLachlan, Seamus Egan and Dave Merenda

I will remember you.
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by.
Weep not for the memories.

Remember the good times that we had.
We let them slip away from us when times got bad.
Clearly I first saw you smiling in the sun.
Wanna feel your warmth upon me; I wanna be the one

I will remember you.
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by.
Weep not for the memories.
