Spirit Day!
My intermediate orchestra had the idea of doing a Spirit Day (everyone dresses up like something for a day of school). Our theme: BFI (like FBI, except Black Forest Intermediate).
Cool and Spy-like
Appropriately-themed T-shirt
At the end of each orchestra practice, we have to put all the chairs and desks back in order. I started timing them with a stop watch; each rehearsal they try to beat their record time!
Stage 1: Move the stands out of the way
Stage 2: line up the desks
Stage 3: put the chairs in place!
Amid squeals of “Chair! Chair!” they get everything in place. Their record time: 44 seconds!
