Their recently concluded English-Math-Science Festival held in Story Land
SM Fairview last Sept. 28 paved the way to make my son speak in public.
He got 3rd place in their story telling entitled The Turtle and The Monkey
for the 1st graders. His awesome props - courtesy of my friends in the office.
Big Thanks to you my friends....
For a playful and shy 6 year-old kid, it was really hard to memorize and
have him recite the story this long. Surprisingly, my son did it. He was
able to memorize the whole story in 2-nights session + the action
for another night. What made him more interested and memorized it easily was
that I let him wrote it down in a brown paper and posted it in our bedroom wall.
I told him that was my way of reviewing when I was in of his age so that it will
easily stick into my mind and will never forget it.
Though I was a little bit disappointed when he did not act what he practised
during the contest, thank God, he finished the story.
It was really a first big step for Marty.
What's playin' in my mind? What if I enroll him on their theater acting
club?
After the event, all kids were treated with a Ride-All-You-Can ticket
in the Story Land rides. It was really a tiring but enjoyable day for my son
with his classmates.
