Third and fourth grade students dressed as their favorite vocabulary words for Rochester Memorial School's second annual Vocabulary Day.

The students had a small parade during the all-school meeting on Tuesday morning, and shared their word with the rest of the school.

The purpose of the parade was to encourage all of the students to love words and to teach them a few new ones.

Judges from the community decided which students embodied their word the best and kids were presented with an award and gift certificates to Barnes & Noble donated by Cape Cod Five Bank.

Kids in each grade also submitted their favorite vocabulary words for consideration. The person who chose the favorite word in each grade received a prize.
