At West End Primary’s morning assembly on Monday May 23, Primary 4 Simons put on a fashion show with a difference.To the beat of Michael Jackson’s popular music, they shared with the school information about the newspaper they had been studying in the Readers’ and Writers’ Workshops.With the exception of the narrator, each one of the students was dressed in black and white and a section of the newspaper. Samuell Simmons, the narrator, introduced the fashion show as the sections paraded around the hall.Starting with the flag and the folio, modelled by Malay Robinson, the students explained the different sections of the newspaper, including cut line, jump line, headlines, dateline, teasers and refers.Then strutted down the runway the editorial section, lifestyle section, sports and weather, advertisements and last, but not least, the funeral notices, the most viewed section of the newspaper.The stunning designs, prepared by P4 teacher Chantal Simons, were made of newspaper clippings stuck on to poster board.Ms Simons borrowed the concept and some of the fashions from Gilbert Institute teachers Juanita Telford and Barbara Alleyne.“It felt fun,” stated Chelsea Haley of her part in the fashion show.Garsha Daley announced, “It was quite an experience because I got to learn parts about the newspaper.”“I felt it was one of the best plays I’ve ever done,” declared Anushka Jayathunga.Thanking the students for their “creative assembly”, Principal Sandra Smith remarked that P4 Simons had done “an excellent job”.“We learned a lot from your assembly,” she told the children.
