In the upcoming week in Library, students will be hearing and discussing Miss Alaineus: A Vocabulary Disaster by Debra Frasier. This book, written by the author of On the Day You Were Born, follows Sage, a fifth grader who has misheard and misunderstood her teacher's weekly vocabulary homework. This "disaster" eventually turns into a triumph as it inspires a vocabulary parade. CHA will be participating in a Top Hat Parade on Friday, January 31 and this book helps them prepare for the project. Focused around Science vocabulary, the Top Hat Parade allows each child to create a top hat using a Science word that is grade appropriate. More information about the project will be sent home soon by your child's science teacher.
