Maplewood's third grade students put on the play "Character Counts" for the rest of the school to put the finishing touches on Red Ribbon Week.
We sure have a bunch of talented actors and actresses!
This mini-musical combined fairy tale characters and character traits.
Students sing about the importance of caring how we act, doing the right thing, and treating others like we would want them to treat us.
Good character traits include, being caring, fair, respectful, responsible, honest, kind, controlling your anger and forgiving others.
Through music and humor, the fairy tale characters showed how to change their behavior to reflect good character traits!
When she felt angry, Cinderella learned to count to 10, walk away,and take a breath.
The kids learned alot about doing what is right!
Even beautiful princesses have to remember to use their positive character traits.
