Panther Vocabulary Parade
October 27, 2017
The Palacios Vocabulary Parades were held on Friday, October 27, 2017 at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. The vocabulary parade idea came from Debra Frasier, author of the book, Miss Alaineus, A Vocabulary Disaster. In the story, a student confuses the word "miscellaneous" for the name Miss Alaineus. The student turns an embarrassing mistake into a winning costume in the school's vocabulary parade.
Students at Palacios Elementary selected a word to depict in a visual representation. Parents assisted the students in creating a visual depiction of the word in a costume format. Thank you parents for your help and encouragement. We had 95 percent participation. This was a great job done by our students, parents and teachers!
