Virtual Talent Show: SIP Edition

Each year, James' school puts on a talent show. I give them all kinds of kudos because those productions are not easy, even without special needs.

As this is our first year with the school, I did not know what to expect. Then there was this shelter in place thing -- how to coordinate the show, view performances ... wow. In the end, it was so worth it.

The kids LOVED it. There was 150% cheering and support for every effort. The event used pre-recorded and live segments, and we all watched on the Chromebooks.

I think it's one of my most favourite school events in the history of my kids' school events, the other being my daughter's amazing and adorable performance as a rainforest porcupine.

 James chose to ... be the announcer for his classroom's contribution. We taped his lines and mailed them to the school. He nailed it - so proud!


PS: This is the first time that James was included in a school production since his one-of-a-kind Third Grade class (as a full-inclusion student), when his wonderful teacher and fabulous aide together got the entire class to perform an ocean-themed musical for parents and the school. He was a lobster for that one. 

Thank you, Anova teachers and staff!!
