Third Graders Stage "Two Bear Cubs"

Third Graders in Melissa Kottmeier's classroom did a fantastic job staging the play, "Two Bear Cubs."  The play was about a pair of sibling bear cubs who disobeyed their mother and wandered far from their den.  They fell asleep on a rock that magically grew into a mountain while they slept, and they couldn't get off the mountain by themselves.  Mama Bear enlisted the help of other animals in the forest--a hawk, fox, badger, deer, two fawns, a mountain lion and a mouse, but none of them could reach the bear cubs on top of the mountain.  The only animal who could help was the little measuring worm, who climbed up to the top of the mountain and brought the bear cubs back to safety.  It was a great show with a great message about friendship and not judging someone by their looks.
