Reader's Theater
On May 6th, the Senior Resources volunteers came to Hawthorne to perform a reader's theater. The name of the play was Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type. Each month, a group of talented seniors perform a play for us. They rewrite a popular children's book as a play. Here are a few pictures to capture the moment.
The animals demanded better treatment on the farm.
Farmer Brown was furious with their demands.
A typewriter? The kids were amazed at this antique.
At the end, each child was given a book. Thanks to Senior Resources of Freeborn County, Wal-Mart, and the Noon Kiwanis for donating the books.
