Aliana and Sophie have captured and produced one minute of joy. It seems strange to hear 3rd graders saying “when I was little” yet this piece brings back memories of being younger and already feeling so old. Every new piece of knowledge, like the fact that not all eggs are hard boiled, and you become older. Transitions are choppy but the background music track makes the piece easy to latch onto and every student’s voice is clear. The repeated clap track at the end is obvious and it serves as a neat reminder of school projects I completed in 3rd grade. The credits are the best part! So kudos to Aliana and Sophie, I recommend this piece for anyone looking to improve their mood and for producers planning a show on childhood, memories, misconceptions, 3rd grade, and growing up.
