Okay, so when they said we were going to be doing circus arts I will be honest, I was a little nervous. I did not really want to be learning about circus arts, but once we started practicing and learning all of the tricks it was actually pretty fun. I didn't realize how hard it actually was going to be.
The diabolo was surprisingly hard and it took me a while to get it down. I think that this is something that I would like to do with my students in my future classroom because it teaches them to be patient and it teaches them that they have to practice new things and that it takes time.
The flower sticks were really fun! That was the one thing that I caught on quick with. I thought it was really cool when that guy came in (sorry forgot his name!) and showed us all of the tricks on the diabolo and the flower sticks, he was extremely good! I wish that we could have worked with him more because I felt that I would have learned a lot more tricks from him.
I will be honest, in the beginning of the quarter I really did not want to do the circus arts, but now I don't mind it so much. It was pretty fun to learn something different
