I read the tagged book to two UTK classes today. It's written so it can be sung, with each spread a verse about a different ocean animal. The tune is written out in the back, so although I wasn't sure if the classes would like the book read or sung, I was ready for either. The majority voted for me to sing it, and when I got to the end of each verse, they applauded. I know they're all under 6 years old, but it was still gratifying.

ravenlee What a fun lesson! 1w
ImperfectCJ @ravenlee I'm glad they had a good time because otherwise I might feel completely self-indulgent...I love singing in front of people, but I'm always afraid I'm being pushy about it and they're just being polite. But I have never gotten the impression that 4- and 5-year-olds are adept at politeness for the sake of politeness. They may not be discerning listeners, but they wouldn't hesitate to let me know clearly if they didn't like my singing. 🤣 1w
