This week at school we had Green Fools Circus Residency come and teach us new exciting circus tricks. The instructor was named Anne Marie. Some of our favorite tricks were the stilts, the barrel walking and the unicycles. The first day, we did simple tricks like juggling and the flower sticks and the second day we did balancing tricks like the barrel walking. On the third day we split into two groups and one group did stilts and the other group did unicycles. On the fourth day we switched so the people doing unicycles could do stilts and the people doing stilts, could do unicycles, you were also given the choice of doing any of the things we did in the previous days like balancing plates or doing flower sticks. There were also tight ropes, slacklines, rolla bolas and diablo yoyos. We learned that circus was about entertainment and we were entertained this week! Circus takes a lot of practice. Everyone had a lot of fun during the week learning circus tricks.
