3 Piggy Opera

by Carol Kaplan and Sandi Becker

On October 6th at 6:30PM First Grade students will perform the musical stylings of The 3 Piggy Opera. Students have learned all about the elements of Opera; Like how an Opera is musical story, an Aria is a very emotional song and a Finale is a song to end the show. I first introduced students to the 3 Piggy Opera by reading the story of the 3 Little Pigs. We discussed the elements of the story and began learning movements and words songs; such as “The Wolf Song” and “The No Way” pig song. First Grade is having a blast learning about and performing this silly, and a little bit scary, musical!
