What are you going to accomplish? Be specific.

In this performance we accomplished memorizing the lyrics to the song
Getting to Know You, making choreography, and deciding who will sing
each part. We also made sure we were able to understand what the song
is about, so we were able to make choreography that has to do with the
song.
How will you know you are ready to perform?
We knew when we were ready to perform because once we memorized
the lyrics, came up with choreography, and decided who was going to
sing which parts, we were able to practice a few times. We also wanted
to make sure everyone knew what they were doing so that our
performance would be good. Once we did all of this, we knew we were
ready to perform.
What are the challenges you will face in meeting your goal?
One challenge that we faced when meeting our goal was giving everyone
specific choreography so that nobody was just sitting there unless they
were supposed to.
What skills, concepts, and vocabulary will you apply in working towards
your performance?

Some of the skills, concepts, and vocabulary that we will work on

applying in our performance is choreographing and harmonizing. These
are very important in order to make our performance look and sound
good, as well as flow.

What elements of this experience are transferrable to the real world?

An element of this experience that is transferrable to the real world is
that people do some of these things such as choreographing, dancing,
singing, etc. in their daily life or as their jobs.
What is your timeline to become performance-ready?
Our timeline to become performance-ready is to first figure out who will
sing what parts, then memorize the lyrics, next practice the song and try
and work out some harmonies, then we will figure out choreography,
and finally we will practice until we feel ready to perform.
