Musical Performance

On October 18th we had a music performance from a group called 'Ensemble L'event'.

We had this performance to have fun while listening to music. It was in the school gym.

There were 7 people in the group. They had a flute, drums, saxophone, clarinet, tuba, euphonium and trumpet.

They played many pieces of music, for example, Studio Ghibli songs and animal music.

All the songs were amazing.

Q1) What was your favorite song?

A1) My favorite was the Studio Ghibli song.

Q2) What instrument would you like to try?

A2) I want to try playing the drums.

 

I hadn't heard live music for a long time so I was impressed with how the different instruments made harmony together.

Futaba donut shop opened!?

At lunchtime on October 13th the 6C girls opened their own donut shop!

Due to Covid-19 and Futaba school rules they couldn't sell real donuts so they made donuts out of clay and made a pretend shop to sell off the donuts.

They had so much fun by roleplaying selling and buying donuts!

^This is a photo of the the item sold in the donut shop.

I asked 2 Futaba students, a customer and someone who sold donuts how they felt.

Q1) As a customer did you have fun?

A1) Yes, of course! I love donuts.

Q2) By making donuts did you have fun, and which part did you like the most?

A2) I had so much fun! I liked pondering about donuts the most.

 

6C's donut shop looked so much fun! I think that through this activity the students got a better friendship.
