Help Mrs. K.

Please help my Talented and Gifted first grade class learn the beauty of ballet and classical music by helping us to attend an evening performance of the Nutcracker Ballet performed in Lincoln Center. The class is part of the Academy for the Gifted and Talented in Region 4. To encourage a love of music and the arts we visit the New York State Theater, part of the cultural center of New York City that many of the children in the class would not otherwise be able to visit. The visit is an extension of an intensive class study of the parts of the orchestra, the way music is produced, Tchaikovsky, the role of a composer and extends to an examination of ballet as an art form and its history. The evening becomes an exciting magical time that stays in their memories and can lead to a future interest in the arts. Please help give them this opportunity to enjoy music and dance in a beautiful, exciting and enjoyable form.
