What Characters They Are!

Our school is in the midst of Spirit Week sponsored by Student Council. Today we paid homage to our favorite storybook characters. I loved the adventurous and a little bit wacky tales of Pippi Longstocking when I was growing up! So I played the part of Pippi today.

Some other characters joined me in the picture. I hope Mack likes books as much as I do!



Isn't she precious?



My mom was Little Red Riding Hood, she was minus her basket of goodies for car duty!



I could have put this little Harry Potter in my pocket and taken him home!



We are also busy with a short novel study right now. We are reading a oldie goldie, Be a Perfect Person in Just Three Days (you can't underline on blogspot for some reason). Milo, the main character, is a middle schooler that is clumsy and seems to do everything wrong. He stumbles, literally, on a book that promises to make him perfect. He just has to follow a few simple steps. Today's step was for Milo to wear broccoli around his neck. We took the advice as well, but no perfection yet!

Here are some students giving broccoli a shot.
