The Vocabulary Parade Is Just Weeks Away! By Darby, Emily, and Sabrina

The tradition of  the vocabulary parade is in just 3 weeks! Start creating fabulous and unique costumes for Halloween and the costumes should be better than the store bought costumes. 

So this afternoon, Mrs. Zimmerman read us a book called "Miss Aleineus" that inspired the original vocabulary parade at Chelsea Prep. This is going to be the sixth annual vocabulary parade. The book was about a girl named Sage who thought that the vocabulary word on her list meant the cover of the spaghetti box. The book was spectacular, especially the part when her mother said, "Every mistake has gold in it," and then Sage literally gets a trophy made of gold because of her mistake-inspired costume. 

After Mrs. Zimmerman read us the book, she told us about the vocabulary parade. Not only did she tell us about it, she also put a Vocabulary Parade planning sheet in every person's mailbox. 

Emily: "I think the vocabulary parade might be fun!"
Darby: "I think it's it's going to be really fun because I've never done this before. It'll be a new opportunity to do something besides the traditions at my old school."
Sabrina: "The book also teaches a lesson. Her mom meant that we can learn from our mistakes, and our mistakes can actually be good!"
