The Big Greek Play

Our class has been studying a unit on Ancient Greece in Social Studies. This is one of the biggest events of the year for the sixth graders, since we have a play and a big chunk out of the the textbook to read. Our class's play this year is the story of Cupid and Psyche. I was trying out for the part of Psyche. My teacher announced that we could choose a scene and act it out with help from other students. I was so nervous when my turn came. I chose two of my friends to help me and also chose Scene Three. When I actually started to speak, the elephants stomping around in my stomach stopped, and I was able to actually get into the part. I had a lot of competition, though, one girl in particular. It's a good thing there's a Cast A Psyche and a Cast B one. We get the results tomorrow, so I'll be posting again soon!
