Our Circus Acts

Cirque du Ole
Circus of Fun
Yesterday the class had a chance to perform circus acts that they had made up.  They worked in groups.


They worked on these acts for about one week.



Neon Circus
The reason that they made up circus acts was because in the novel we are reading, The Adventures of Tommy Smith, the main character, Tommy, runs away to join the circus.

All Star circus

  1. Hi, Rach here!
    I am going to tell you a bit about the circus acts. I am in the one beside the third paragraph. I am the one in the red shirt, arm pieces, and black pants. My circus is called "Neon Circus Production!". We had an announcer, ( which was me) two balancers with feathers on their heads and in the striped skirts, two acrobats in the purple dresses, and two clowns. Thare were three other circuses.

    We had an amazing week, and then a fun performance! I can't wait to see what we do next!

  3. Hi my name is Karly. This October me and my class were reading a book called “The adventures of Tommy Smith”. In this story a boy named Tommy was beaten on a farm and accused of stealing, that’s when the boy ran away. After sailing on a Asia and riding on a train Tommy entered Toronto and was joined in to the circus. My class separted into four groups and did a circus act. My favourite part about this circus act was when we all did front flips off the stage

  16. Tommy Smith learns to take care of trouble (Horse).We are just at a part when Macy tells Tommy that Mr.Grammond is her grandpa and he's coming to visit!!!! Mr.Grammond is the man who killed Mr.Warren then blamed it on Tommy!
    At this point Tommy has no idea what he is going to do because Mr.Grammond didn't tell anyone when he was coming.Sarah

  20. A few weeks ago we had a circus. The circus that I was in was called The Neon Circus Productions!!!Our group's circus included balencing,acrobats and a special edition(Lucas spraying Elmo with a turkey baster!!!I was part of the act of the acrobats performing with Sarah Sparkles.That part was my favourite. Together we did the splits,back bridges,flips and summersaults.We did all of this acro in these sparkly purple costumes!!!I loved the costumes who wouldn't love them!!!:)I also liked the costumes of the balencers,bright and neon.Their costumes sure match our circus name, The Neon Circus Productions!!!
