YOU ARE LOOKING AT AND
LISTENINGTO THE LEWIS
AND CLARK MUSICAL PUT
ON BY THE 5TH GRADE
CLASS AT RUSSELL
ELEMENTARY. THESE
STUDENTS HAVE BEEN
WORKING VERY HARD OVER
THE LAST TWO MONTHS TO
GET A READY AND THEY
HAVE TAKEN ON A LOTOF
RESPONSIBILITY AS WELL.




KRISTIN ZSCHAECHNER,
RUSSELL ELEMENTARY
MUSIC TEACHER
"I BASICALLY HANDED THE
KIDS SCRIPTS AND SAID
HEY, TAKE THIS HOME AND
WORK ON IT, AND THAT IS
WHAT THEY DID. WHICH IS
PRETTY IMPRESSIVE, AND
THEY PUT A LOT OF HARD
WORK INTO IT."




THIS MUSICAL IS HELPING
THESE KIDS LEARN SEVERAL
DIFFERENT SKILLS INCLUDING
SINGING, DANCING,
INSTRUMENT PLAYING AND
MAYBE SOME OTHER SKILLS
THAT ARE NOT AS
NOTICEABLE.




KRISTIN ZSCHAECHNER,
RUSSELL ELEMENTARY
MUSIC TEACHER
"SO WE ARE WORKING
WITH EMPATHY, WE ARE
WORKING A LOT WITH HOW
WOULD ANOTHER PERSON
FEEL AND THEN BECOMING
THAT PERSON, WHICH IS A
REALLY BIG THING FOR THESE
5TH GRADERS"




NOW AS YOU CAN
IMAGINE, KRISTIN IS VERY
PASSIONATE ABOUT THE
ARTS. AND SHE KNOWS, A
SINGLE MUSICAL LIKE THIS
CAN GIVE THESE KIDS
SKILLS THEY WILL USE FOR
THE REST OF THEIR LIVES.




KRISTIN ZSCHAECHNER,
RUSSELL ELEMENTARY
MUSIC TEACHER
"THIS HELPS IN TEACHING
TEAM WORK, FOR TEACHING
DISCIPLINE AND ALSO
PATIENCE. ALL OF THOSE
THINGS I FEEL LIKE ARE JUST
SO IMPORTANT FOR YOUNG
KIDS TO LEARN AND GET A
FOUNDATION FOR WHEN
THEY ARE HERE IN
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL"
