So I am writing a skit for my sunday school class boys to perform for my junior church class. I am a procrastinator by nature. it seams like NO MATTER what i do, how i do it, where i do it, when i do it, why i do it, its ALWAYS ALWAYS last minute. But that works for me! Whenever i put too much time into things i end up over analyizing things, over thinking ideas, trying too hard and then it just turns out *BLAH* but when i have a general idea of what i want to do and then finally get to it a week, a few days or even hours before whatever it is i am doing it turns out WAY better than i thought it would have and WAY better than it would have if i would have had all year to prepare for it.... SO like normal last sautrday i start working on an idea for the next days sunday school work to do a play for junior church. I got in the groove of it and it all just flowed together! I didnt finish it because i knew it needed one more day of work to be good, so i brought it in half done so the boys could practice half of it and get an idea of their characters and ideas of how they want to make their own puppets. SO thats what we will be doing wednesday night and sunday morning before they preform is practacing and working on puppets.. and to my super dooper surprise, THE BOys LOVE IT! im so excited that its turning out good and that the boys are actually REALLY ENJOYING IT! its exciting when you have something you like AND that you class is really into! Getting middle schoolers excited about certian things can be a tricky task to accomplish, so im glad i have succeeded!
The skit is about judging people and and giving people second chances. Its about two boys Tommy and Billy who are buddies and an outcast 'weirdo' Mikey, that they end up embracing in the end. The story revolves around a fort that the two buddies want to work on and then through gritting teeth they invite Mikey to help and through all of that they see that hes really not all that bad, and they ALL LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER.... I called it "A Fort Built Of Friendship" Maybe ill post it some day for all my devoted 3.7 readers! ???

ReplyDeleteMake that 2.8 Rita Lee ... it would be less but my Weight Watchers hasn't been going so good. And Jenni, I love how creative you are with your class. The title is excellent. You should save your ideas and then compile them into a book to help other more clueless teachers in the future. Also, I must say, what is it with you and inappropriate enuendos? "Quickie" blog. C'mon! We all know what that means! :)
