D.
All year we practice — and then comes the big day.
We put on our costumes and walk backstage.
When our music starts, we walk onto the stage.
The audience watches us, and we give them our best dance.
The lights are bright, and the music fills the room.
When the dance ends, we bow to the audience and they clap.
That moment — the clapping, the smiling — is what makes all the practice worth it!
