My son had to make more than one diorama while he was in school, so I knew that one. Thanks for playing along today!!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard coloratura. What a fun word!

Do they still make dioramas in school? I remember long nights, making miniature stuff for mine.
ReplyDeleteColoratura is a terrific word.
I knew diorama too- I'm sure Lisa Simpson makes several in a few episodes. Coloratura is new for me too.
