Miss Adell 


April's music classes were filled with silly songs inspired by spring!  We had lost of fun singing the Shakey Egg song and learning the Chicken Dance - you have me to thank next time your kids know how to polka at a wedding :)  We ended music for the year with each class picking its favorites!   It has been my joy sharing music with your children this year - they touch my heart every day.

Love,
Ms. Adell
