Reader’s Theatre
Just before the end of the school year, the fourth grade classes put on a short “Reader’s Theatre” based on stories they’d been reading. MacKenzie’s class performed several scenes from Jack London’s book, “Call of the Wild.” MacKenzie played the role of Mercedes, who was part of a team in search of gold in the Yukon.
She looked pretty warm wearing a heavy coat, hat and scarf in late May, but she enjoyed the role. At least she didn’t have to play the part of Buck, the 140 lb Saint Bernard/Scotch Shepherd mix and lead dog on the sled dog team. The boy who played that role did a great job panting and acting dog-like at just the right times though!What a wonderful acting debut!
