Petite Rouge


Our mystery reader today, dressed as Red Riding Hood, was our Instructional Technologist Melanie Holtsman, reading a delightful Cajun rendition of Red Riding Hood, Petite Rouge. Melanie grew up in Louisiana so she has that Cajun accent down to a second language. The class was mesmerized with this fractured fairy tale featuring a duck Red and an alligator in the wolf's role. Melanie front loaded the children by introducing some of the vocabulary as part of her introduction. What a treat!
