Sophie once again performed in the choir at school. They just had their Choir music night and performed songs from Broadway shows. It was excellent and very entertaining! I was so proud of my girl up there in front of such a large audience. She loved the singing as much as us and she was quite happy to sing along in her own way to all the songs whether it was her choirs turn or not!
It is hard to see her in these photos but she is to the far right of the group...
My parents and my niece were able to attend with us so it was a very special evening for Sophie. Her wonderful EA also took time out of her evening to come and be with Sophie for the recital. It was so nice to be able to watch my girl be in the choir with all of her friends.
The choir directors have made a real effort to have Sophie even more included this year by having a singing buddy with her all the time. Her friends love doing this for her and Sophie can watch them and learn from them as well. A special education music teacher even came to the school to give some suggestions on how to work with Sophie to make it a positive experience for her in choir. So many good things came from her visit and we know that Sophie benefited from the effort of all involved!
