As an extension and enrichment activity for the end of their unit on A Christmas Carol, Mrs. Wall’s 7th grade Gifted ELA students attended “A Dickens of a Party" today. Students had to research and use Victorian traditions and table etiquette. They also had to portray a character from A Christmas Carol and act in character for the entire time. After their meal, they played Victorian parlor games, which they researched as well. A special guest appearance by CMS’ very own “Ebeneezer Scrooge” was a highlight of the morning! ![Scrooge](https://8f5be22e7dc43b5e49da-59d939c3f381d4f562145d6266f70a8d.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com/post_image/data/13950/1674854421000.jpeg)
