Music in the Morning
[Inside Ms Sheila?s school...]
"Today class, we?ll visit Marie?s music room for the first time. In fact, it?s the first activity we?re doing this morning so please follow me to her room," announced Ms. Sheila. *The class follows* [Inside Marie?s music room...]
"Good morning, class. Welcome to my music room. As you can see, there?s plenty of musical instruments that you will be learning how to use. You will also eventually write your own songs and make the music to go along. That?s not for a while though. Today?s activity is to get you all familiar with your assigned instruments. I?ve put all the instruments in a hat and you all are to pick one slip of paper out of the hat and find the particular instrument. I can help if you find yourself confused. I?m putting the hat on my desk and when I do, you?re all to pick from it," explained Marie. *She puts the hat down and the class walks up and picks*
"Bongo buns? That?s an interesting name," giggled Mocha.
"Each instrument has something to do with food but you can?t eat them, no matter how good they look," added Marie. *the others find their instruments*
"How do we play them?" asked Bonnie.
"There are pieces of paper on top of each instrument that show you how they?re played. You may want to keep them with you in case you forget because you?ll be needing to practice using them outside of class," continued Marie.
"Maybe these drums will remind me not to be so indulging on chocolate," thought Truffle.
"That?s it for today. Ms Sheila will take us to the next activity," called Marie.
"Back into the classroom, everyone. Science is next and you?re all going to get into groups of 3. There are instructions on the desks and you follow them and fill out the questionnaire," agreed Ms. Sheila.
"Oh cool, we?re basically evaluating each other," noted Mocha.
"Pretty much," answered Ms. Sheila.
"Wow, I get to be with Mocha and Truffle," stated Bob.
"You can all begin now," announced Ms. Sheila. *The class starts working*
"This is great fun," remarked Galapeno.
"I?ll say. We?ve never really met like this before, nor given the opportunity to find out more about each other, even though it was always there," added Jasmine.
"When you?re done, hand the questionnaires to me," stated Ms. Sheila. *Mocha?s group hands in their questionnaires*
"Now we can watch the others? groups," concluded Mocha as she and her group sit down.
"It?s always nice seeing ponies work together," remarked Truffle.
"That?s for sure," agreed Bob. *Jasmine?s group hands in their questionnaires*
"You guys are quick," noted Jasmine.
"I guess it was easier to tell with us since we have the literally bigger group," giggled Mocha.
"That?s probably true, though we did have Jasmine with us," added Darren.
"It was almost like a date with the three of us," added Kyle.
"Well that?s one way to put it," stated Jasmine.
"Hey Darren, looks like you?re taking up on Galapeno?s idea, huh?" questioned Mocha.
"Yep. I feel I have to if I want her to be my love and I know I do. I?ve put on about 2 pounds so far." answered Darren.
"Well best of luck with that," added Mocha.
"Thanks," replied Darren. *Marie?s group hands in their questionnaires*
"How?s it going you three? You all almost done?" asked Ms. Sheila.
"Almost. The questions are kinda tricky in our case," called Bonnie.
"There we go," finished Brittany. *Bonnie?s group hands in their questionnaire*
"So what?d you all think of that exercise?" asked Ms. Sheila.*Jasmine raises her hoof*
"That was fun and rather sexy," remarked Jasmine.
"Definitely," agreed Darren.
"So that would mean you?d want to do it again sometime?" questioned Ms. Sheila. *The class nods*
"Maybe we could even pick the groups next time?" suggested Mocha.
"I?ll think about it but right now, it?s lunch time. Go and eat your fill," responded Ms. Sheila.
"Don?t worry, Ms Sheila, I will," assured Mocha.
"What a fun way to spend the morning," thought Bob.
