American Pop

The Third Graders put on the most awesome school performance every year.  They celebrate "American Pop" from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s.  It is so much fun to watch the kids singing and dancing to snippets of popular music through these decades.  I heard a grandma sitting in front of us say, "This is like watching my life right before my eyes."  Music is such a big part of growing up and it was a fun night to celebrate it.  Sammie had to dress up like a 50s girl and danced with a sign to an Elvis song.  And yes, there were kids dressed up like Elvis for her number.  It was awesome.  I wish I could remember all of the songs they sang.  Some were hilarious like "I love Rock n' Roll!" "Can't Touch This," and "Vogue."  They also sang Ain't Nothin' But A Hound Dog, HELP!, Stayin' Alive, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, Everybody's Going Surfin'. 
I wish I could remember more.  Such a fun night.
