Second-Graders Take on Fashion

Amelia Bedelia (FWCD Middle School Librarian Kim Gardner) hosted the Lower School’s sixth Second-Grade Idiom Fashion Show. Parents were in stitches as they viewed a video of their students taking wordplay to incredible heights as they walked the red carpet in the Lower School Atrium and at home, showing off the latest fashion trends. Amelia’s pun-filled script is sure to have brought a smile to Peggy Parish’s face (author of the Amelia books). Fashions on the catwalk included bubble skirts, baggy jeans, 14-karat gold necklaces, wingtip shoes, gowns with trains, ruffled party dresses, ball gowns, moon boots, sport coats, hoop skirts, bell-bottoms, balloon and bell sleeves, 10-gallon hats, and boat-neck and turtleneck shirts.
