Silly Skit Night

Tonight the Student Council hosted "Silly Skit Night". Since I love dressing up in costumes, this was right up my alley. I played the Big Bad Wolf in a version of Little Red Riding Hood with the middle school English teacher. We reenacted the story of Little Red Riding Hood with really bad Spanish, Texan/Southern accents, really fast, without talking, and using Smurf-isms. In another skit, I played an overly enthusiastic  Justin Bieber fan. The 8th graders practiced a lot during lunch this past week for their skit, and they did a great job! They won the trophy! What a fun night...but now I have to plan and grade :( The students don't have school next Monday, but the teachers do. I'm looking forward to the much-needed "catch-up" time! Then, next Thursday we have parent/teacher conferences, which should be interesting since the parents don't speak much English, and my Spanish is still very elementary.
