The Trial of the Big Bad Wolf

Last Wednesday, each 3rd grad class put on a trial ... the Big Bad Wolf was being tried for killing the Three Little Pigs. This was a terrific opportunity to learn more about the Bill of Rights, and what makes the US such a special place to live. Mr. Gray, a local attorney and son of one of the teachers, had worked with the classes over the last few weeks, to teach them about first 8 ammendments to the constitution. They used these principles in the play. Here are some pictures!

The kids had a lot of fun dressing up and acting it out, and the parents had fun watching. In Alek's class, the Wolf was found innocent!
