Cerritos Performances
Cerritos Performing Arts Center has presented another wonderful schedule of events that I previewed a few weeks ago. Out of the 25 performances available, I have requested that we be included in the following:
- Hap Palmer Live! (10/22/07) (Grades Pre-K-3)
- San Jose Taiko (11/6/07) (Grades K-12)
- The Nutcracker (11/27/07) (Grades 1-7)
- Figaro’s American Adventure (1/29/08) (Grades 3-6)
- Aesop’s Fables II (2/5/08) (Grades K-4)
- Letters to Harriet Tubman (2/13/08) (Grades 4-8)
- Little Red Riding Hood and Other Stories (2/19/08) (Grades 1-4)
- The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere (2/20/08) (Grades 3-7)
- The Disneyland Band (3/3/07) (Grade 2)
- Ling Jin Chinese Dance (3/4/08) (Grades K-8)
- The Velveteen Rabbit (4/8/08) (Grades 1-4)
While the grades listed have been suggested by Cerritos, we have found over the years that performances can be seen by a wider age range, depending on your particular child. While I have submitted an application for all these performances, we will probably not be able to get all of them as they use a lottery system. However, if we have a representative at the professional development workshop we are able to take the place of educators that don’t show up…and that frequently happens! While the timing of these workshops is inconvenient for all of you because you will have to get a babysitter, they would be very helpful to you as parent educators. And they serve yummy cookies and tea/coffee! Let me know if you are interested in attending a particular workshop. I will attend as many as I can, but I will definitely need some help if we are going to go to all of these! I will send emails to people on my roster when we are confirmed for performances.
