Choir Concert

By: Lilly Bianco

On Wednesday, December 3rd was the

Hobart Middle School’s choir concert. The

concert was directed by choir teacher, Mr.

Wolff. The groups that performed were

Wolfkins, 6th grade, 7th grade, and 8th grade.

The choir sang many joyful holiday songs. All

groups did a terrific job at singing. Every

student in choir did their personal best. It was

a great concert and the audience and choir

students had a great time. Some of the songs

that were sung were “Let It Go,” “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of

the Year,” “Do You Want to Build a Snowman,” and “Hey, Ho, Nobody

Home.” The performances were great and everyone was following all

of the rules. No one was fidgeting or playing with their hair. Everyone

was just singing and having a good time.

6th Grade End of Semester Reward

By Lilly Bianco

All 6th grade teachers decided to have a little end of the

semester treat for the 6th graders. All 6th graders on the last

Friday before break played a game of dodge ball against their four

core teachers. They also watched a movie and ate snacks and drank

juice during 6th and 7th hours. It was great for the 6th graders to

relax, have fun, and have a great way to start Winter Break!

DRAMA CLUB ENDS! By Emilie Arias

Do you like performing on a stage? Do you like performing? Then

you’ll be sad to hear Drama club is over. Of course, you like

performing to an audience but the club was great. It started in

October and ended in November. Students learned how to perform in

front of a crowd and performed skits just for fun. Mrs. Shurr

shared, “I really enjoyed Drama Club.” Also, she will be in charge of a

talent show soon. Go on the school city of Hobart website to find out

more. Any further questions go to the ISS room at lunch.
