Union Intermediate School held their second annual Vocabulary Parade on Friday, Oct. 28. During weekly library lessons with Caren Long, Media Coordinator, students read Miss Alaineus: A Vocabulary Disaster by Debra Fraiser. In the story, a fifth grader Sage, becomes sick before Vocabulary Day, and relies on making up her own vocabulary word definitions. In the end, her mistake results in a hilarious interpretation of the word miscellaneous for her schools’ vocabulary parade. Union Intermediate practiced their dictionary skills by finding words and definitions, and creating costumes to represent their words. This year the contest was judged by Pauline Cole from the Sampson County Parks and Recreation Department, Keisha Cromartie, a representative from Mop Top Kids, and Faye Gay, former school board member.
