Tom Sawyer

Today we were treated to a production of Tom Sawyer. The Windy City Players gave a hilarious performance that had the students on the edge of their seats. The fourth graders, along with the sixth graders, were invited to be part of the show. They played the jury in the famous trial scene. The show includes improvisation and interaction with the audience. One of our third graders gave Tom advice on how to get Becky Thatcher's attention.
