Performing in a Three-Ring Circus

Spinning plates, walking on stilts, and tricks with the diabolo were among the circus activities the students at Minnesauke Elementary School learned when representatives from the National Circus Project visited the school to conduct workshops during physical education classes.

During the weeklong lesson, students in grades K-6 worked with the trained professionals and perfected the skills necessary to perform a number of circus tricks. As a conclusion to the school’s participation in the National Circus Project, the school’s sixth graders conducted an evening Rock and Roll Circus event for their family and friends.
