Robot dancing

Dylan was a mechanic in their class production of “Vacation on Mars,” a musical about the solar system (incidentally, Dylan and the rest of his class have learned a phenomenal amount about the Solar System! And, since I chaperoned on a couple of solar system-related field trips, I did, too! So much fun!).
He really enjoyed the production and took practicing his lines and songs (and the dress rehearsals) very seriously! He’s such a diligient fella!!
Hands down, my favorite part of the show was his robot dance (video clip to come).
Dylan told me he had a bit of stage fright up there, but he did great–said his lines on cue and he didn’t forget a single one!
There were two performances on show day. Tom and Chloe attended the first show (I was in Cameron’s classroom still doing my volunteering stint), but I got to pull Cameron out of class so she could watch the second show with me! Dylan said that seeing all of us at the shows was one of the 3 good things about his day that day. Warms my heart!
