VIP Day 2008 in Mrs. Puglisi's Room

Who is Your "VIP"?

What a wonderful day for students and families in Mrs. Puglisi's class. Students selected a person who they felt was a "Very Important Person" in their lives. They interviewed them, wrote stories about them and invited their special person to attend a celebration. Each student read his/her story and then presented them to his/her VIP. These "Very Important People" came from all over the United States to share in this special day.

Mrs. Puglisi had a slideshow of portraits drawn by each of the students and pictures of their VIP's. It was a wonderful way to bring family and friends together.
