Video Montage: Hillside Teacher Talent Show
Hillside Elementary School staff recently performed a surprise talent show as a prize to the students in a reading contest.
Brookfield Patch has put together a video montage of Hillside's teacher talent show that included songs, dancing, skits, Tae Kwon Do and more.
Children burst into laughter during the hour-long show, in which third grade teacher Jeff Karbowski played a song with the "nose flute" and Principal Julie Kremer karate-chopped two pieces of wood.
The teachers danced and sang to popular songs whose lyrics they had rewritten to reflect the importance of reading.

Some children squealed in excitement as Justin Bieber (aka teacher Shane Radosevich disguised in a hoodie sweatshirt and sunglasses) sang "Baby Baby." Some first-grade girls were overheard gushing, "I think that was really him!"
The lights went down for a dance number with teachers wearing multi-colored glow-in-the-dark outfits, and other teachers literally let their hair down as the whipped their heads around wearing '80s rock-band wigs.
