Rock On!

Emma rocking out on her home-made purple guitar.

Among our favourite family movies is School of Rock with comedian Jack Black. In the film, a washed up lead guitar rocker (Black, aka - Dewey Finn) masquerades as a substitute teacher and turns his homeroom class into a rock band. While Emma isn't running out to join battle of the bands, she is having a lot of fun in her third grade science class at Rosslyn. This last week they completed a unit on sound and the entire class created their own musical instruments. Among the drums, xylophones, and castanets there is a strong guitar section forming in this third grade science experiment. We are looking forward to next Wednesday's chapel service when the kids perform for the elementary school.

Rock on, sister!

For all those who follow the blog... Any suggestions for what Emma's teacher should name her band? We'd love to read your comments!
