Show Good Character - Say No to Drugs!

The above title was our class theme for Red Ribbon Week.  Our week ended with our annual parade (although this year we just marched around the recess field).  We enjoyed dressing up as our favorite book characters (notice Cat in the Hat, Clementine, Harry Potter, Annie from The Magic Tree House, and even Junie B. Jones), and we had a great time eating fun snacks in the classroom.  Here are some pictures of our recent Friday fun...

Red Ribbon Day

"Show Good Character - Say No to Drugs!" was our class theme for Red Ribbon Week. We created a banner, and each student dressed up as his or her favorite book character.

It was fun to actually be some of the characters we've read about - and it was fun to watch and listen to the other "characters" share about their lives. Here is some video footage from our day together...
