Longleaf Elementary has been named a Participating School by the MAC (Mississippi Arts Commission). We have many professional development opportunities for our teachers to attend. We will be integrating arts in our classroom and throughout the school to allow our students to deepen their knowledge and learning experiences.

Rockin' into First Grade

Craft's Critters rocked the stage with their end of the year performance, "Rockin' into First Grade." The "rock-n-roll" songs featured skills the kids have learned throughout the year. While learning these songs, the kids learned about rhythm, diction, and stage presence. Earlier in the year, Craft's Critters had the opportunity to watch the OGMS Spotlight Show Choir perform. These middle school kids were a big inspiration to these kindergartners! After watching the performance, one child said, "I'm going to perform just like them. Their faces were so happy." 

One of my favorite parts of integrating the arts in the classroom is the happiness it brings the children! 







 








ROCK ON CRAFT'S CRITTERS!
