Down to Earth

The fifth graders put on a musical this year called "Down to Earth". Ethan's teacher, Mrs. Telestai wrote it. It was the story of a Geology teacher who got kidnapped in the Bermuda Triangle when two tectonic plates accidentally knocked him out during a fight. Two of his students, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, and two CSI agents helped to locate him. It was full of very clever songs about volcanoes, earthquakes, erosion, plate tectonics, etc. Ethan played Dr. Watson and did a great job. Ethan with his cousin, Brianna--one of the Volcanoes. Ethan and his friend, Carson--one of the CSI agents. Ethan and Mrs. Telestai--Mother Earth.

It was a really well written play that taught the kids a lot about Geology in a fun way. This summer, Ethan and Zach are going to attend a performing arts camp put on by Mrs. Telestai. They will be learning about weather and performing in a play called "Weather or Not".
