At my school, the staff, children, and families read The Water Horse. For the past 20 years, we have also celebrated the arts and spring with Blooming Arts Day, which is always the day before our spring break. We paint, local bands perform. Appalachian storytellers come. It is truly a magical day that I look forward to each year. We also celebrate the children's writing.
Too much for one post. Please continue reading.
Butterfinger This year, we are combining the Water Horse, set in Scotland, with our last event. We have a wonderful show planned with bagpipes and singing. I have been asked to emcee. Can you help me out by providing me with some phrases that I can use? Or do you think it is mocking the culture if I even try? I love the words bairn, wee, laird, ken. Words I have learned from reading Thoene and the Outlander series. 2w
Susanita I love the word “dreich” for dull, gloomy, dreary weather. 2w
Butterfinger @Susanita thank you. That is a cool word. 2w
