If Snow Melts in Your Bed, Is that “Bed-Wetting?”



On Monday December 17th, North Pembroke Elementary School 2nd Graders gave a winter concert on the converted cafeteria stage before an audience packed with parents, relatives, and friends. Each class stood and waved before the concert began; followed by singing, jumping, bell-ringing, stick tapping, and poem reading.

“The Snowball Poem” recited by Parker Hackett, answers our title's question, since a pet snowball accompanies a child to bed and afterwards melts to “wet the bed.”  ‘Certainly a sad way to lose a pal.’

And did you know that “One day Santa Claus did a most peculiar thing?  He enrolled in music class so he could learn to sing” It's true.  The entire second grade entourage of cute brightly dressed cherubs blasted out that information quite loudly and clearly in their first song.

A Kwanzaa poem read by Nicholas Delcore says that to “know ourselves and understand, determination takes a hand.”  A Hanukkah Rainbow Poem” read by Gia Sohmer, talks about “scarlet, purple, green, white, blue, pink and yellow...orange too.”

The sound has been adjusted so you can hear better on the video than at the concert itself. CLICK HERE to see a video teaser of the event.



DVDs of this concert are available as a fundraiser item though the Pembroke Association for Performing Arts (PAPA), 781-910-8899, or CLICK HERE.

This edited performance will NOT be shown on TV.
