Charlotte's Web Play and Much More!

Wow, next week is an extremely busy week!  Please be sure you read all of this post so you know what's going on!  Don't forget reading logs are due on Monday, September 30th! 

Next, let's cover costumes for our play next Friday, October 4th at 2:45 in the White Lick Cafeteria!!  Below is a list of costume ideas and items that I have accumulated over the years for each character.  The top line is the suggested item while the * means what I have or can provide for your precious little character!!  If you have something different or better that would work, I am fine with that.  Please just have all costumes here by Wednesday, October 2nd for our dress rehearsal on Thursday and again on Friday morning!
